Flasks of
Laelia autumnalis
 
 
 
 
Number: TN6627
Name: Laelia autumnalis
  This item was originally offered as TN6262, Cattleya mossiae. The donor provided seed for this pollination, but after growing to a large size in flask it became clear that the plants were not Cattleya mossiae. After blooming one of the offspring, it seems clear they are Laelia autumnalis.
 
Type: unknown    (What's that?)
No Photos Available

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: 180 plants (based on flask surveys done 07/10/2008 )
Yield estimates are only approximate, but may appear to be fairly exact numbers because they are a combination of large rough estimates in remaining mother flasks and more accurate small estimates in reflasks.
Plantlet Sizes: From many flasks 35 - 85 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 06/22/2009 through 08/19/2009)
From one most recently surveyed flask 50 - 85 mm (08/19/2009)

ORIGIN/HABITAT: Mexico. The type specimen was found near Morelia in the state of Michoacán. Plants are now known to grow in the Pacific-facing mountains of central Mexico in the states of Nayarit, Jalisco, Colima, Guanajuato, Guerrero, México, Michoacán, Morelos, and Puebla. They are found in open, dry or humid, deciduous or evergreen forests of oak or oak and pine at 4600–8850 ft. (1400–2700 m). Plants usually grow on scrubby oak trees in exposed locations, but they are sometimes found on mossy rocks.
