| 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: |
158 plants (based on flask surveys done 12/01/2010 through 08/25/2011)
|
| Plantlet Sizes: |
From many flasks 10 - 110 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 12/01/2010 through 01/23/2012)

The origin/habitat information below is supplied courtesy of Charles and Margaret Baker
The following information is based on the name of the plant provided by the donor, and assumes that the name is correct. If the plant has been misidentified, then the following information may not be correct.

ORIGIN/HABITAT: Mexico. This orchid grows on oak trees in the
well-watered, thick forests of the eastern slope of the Mexican Plateau at
elevations up to 6550 ft. (2000 m). It was originally collected near
Xalapa, Veracruz at 3300-4250 ft. (1000-1300 m), and later collections of
both the normal S tigrina and S tigrina var. nigroviolacea have been made
in the mountains near the city of Veracruz and near Orizaba. Early writers
reported the occurrence of this species in Colombia, Ecuador, Venezuela,
and possibly Brazil. Cogniaux (1893-1906) reported that plants were found
near Caracas, Venezuela, and in Colombia near Bogota. Modern writers,
however, have failed to note the occurrence of S. tigrina outside of
Mexico.
