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: 68 plants (based on flask surveys done 04/19/2016 )
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 3 - 60 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 04/19/2016 through 06/29/2018)
From one most recently surveyed flask 40 - 60 mm (06/29/2018)

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: The Indonesian Islands of Ambon and Buru in the Moluccas. Some writers report Paphiopedilum mastersianum also occurs on Ceram Island. Plants usually grow in pockets of humus on steep cliff faces at 2950-6550 ft. (900-2000 m). Paphiopedilum mastersianum grows in moderate shade in areas where seepage, mists, and condensation ensures moisture during the dry season.
