Flask Information |
Availability: |
We have sold all of the flasks for this item. |
You should: |
Consider getting individual plants or compots instead of a flask. You can place a "Notify Flask Recipients" Request, and either we or a flask recipient may contact you when plants are available.
You may also place a "Notify Retries" Request, and if an identical pollination (the same parents) is done again, we'll let you know.
You may reserve a flask, but it's very unlikely you'll get one ...this could only happen if we found a flask that we didn't know we had. |
Yield Estimate: |
150 plants (based on flask surveys done 02/05/2009 through 10/06/2009)
|
Plantlet Sizes: |
From many flasks 40 - 100 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 11/23/2009 through 08/09/2010)
