Flask Information |
Availability: |
We have approximately 150 plants in intermediate-stage flasks, but this may not be enough to make flasks for new requests, because we are still making flasks for prior requests. |
You should: |
Reserve a flask now. Even though we might not have enough plants, if someone drops out ahead of you you many get a flask. If you wait, this will be less likely because you would be further down on the list. |
Yield Estimate: |
906 plants (based on flask surveys done 04/27/2016 through 04/12/2023)
|
Plantlet Sizes: |
From many flasks 2 - 70 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 02/23/2017 through 02/22/2023)
From one most recently surveyed flask 3 - 5 mm (02/22/2023)
|
Expected Flask Price: |
$40.00 per flask of 16 (min.) plants
Plants proliferate if crowded, so are planted more sparsely than usual.
