Culture Notes from Donor: Parent plant: Temperature range Cool-Intermediate 75-58°F, in cooler season Cool-Cold 64-44°F. This particular plant is very hardy as it bloomed during the warm summer here in Memphis, TN with no cooling assistance. It does like good light during the day but not too warm and a nice shady evening in the coolest part of the greenhouse. Mounted on driftwood, the plant is never allowed to fully dry out.
Comments: Parent plant: Small plant.

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: |
270 plants (based on flask surveys done 06/22/2011 through 09/21/2011)
|
