Flask Information
Availability: We have approximately 30 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: 165 plants (based on flask surveys done 12/28/2021 through 07/11/2023)
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 60 - 80 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 06/18/2022 through 09/03/2022)
From one most recently surveyed flask 60 - 80 mm (09/03/2022)
Expected Flask Price: $40.00 per flask of 25 (min.) plants

This text is copyrighted by the Bakers and may not be reproduced without permission.

ORIGIN/HABITAT: Widespread from Sikkim and northeastern India across Myanmar (formerly Burma), through Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam, China, Taiwan, Japan, the Ryukyu Islands, Malaya, Sumatra, Borneo, the Celebes, and the Philippines. In Thailand, plants have been collected in the northern mountains in the vicinity of Chiengmai at 3600-5250 ft. (1100-1600 m). In Malaya, plants have been found at various locations at 500-3950 ft. (150-1200 m) and at locations in eastern and southeastern Thailand at 2600-3950 ft. (800-1200 m). In China, plants are found on trees in sparse woods or on cliffs along ravines at 1000-5250 ft. (300-1600 m) in southern Fujian, Taiwan, Guangdong, Hainan, Guangxi, and Yunnan. Plants have been found in many provinces in Sumatra at 1950-4900 ft. (600-1500 m), growing mostly low on tree trunks or on steep earth slopes. In the Philippines, this orchid has been found on Luzon in the provinces of Benguet, Mountain Province, and Nueva Vizcaya. Plants usually grow as a terrestrial, but it is also found in hollow logs on trees at 1000-5900 ft. (300-1800 m).
