| 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: |
555 plants (based on flask surveys done 07/09/2010 through 06/12/2013)
|
| Plantlet Sizes: |
From many flasks 1 - 80 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 07/09/2010 through 07/25/2012)
From one most recently surveyed flask 15 mm (07/25/2012)

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.
This text is copyrighted by the Bakers and may not be reproduced without permission.
ORIGIN/HABITAT: Brazil. Plants were originally found on the narrow,
swampy, coastal plain, but the habitat is now known to extend from just
east of Santos southward through the states of São Paulo, Santa Catarina
and Rio Grande do Sul to the region south of Porto Alegre. Within this
coastal zone, plants are uncommon in the swamp forest, but they are more
plentiful in the heavy forest along small creeks, usually below 600 ft.
(180 m). The habitat extends some 750 miles (470 km), but it is seldom
more than a few miles wide. Laelia purpurata was originally common
throughout much of this range. Early visitors to the region reported that
plants were so plentiful that they even grew in the sand along the beach.
Because of excessive collecting and habitat destruction, however, plants
in the wild are now found only in very tall trees in remote, hard-to-reach
areas. Miranda (1990) reports that in Rio Grande do Sul plants grow on
large old trees a bit inland from the sea, in Santa Catarina they are
found on scrubby vegetation growing on rocky hills directly facing the
sea, and in São Paulo they grow in swampy areas.
