You should: |
Reserve flasks right now. Please only reserve if you are committing to purchase the flasks when they are ready later.

If you wait to reserve until after we begin reflasking into final maturing flasks, then you will lose your place in line. Otherwise, your original notification request acts as your place-holder, keeping you earlier in line. |

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: Mexico, Guatemala, and Belize. In Mexico, plants are known
only from the eastern slopes and foothills in Chiapas where they grow as
epiphytes in the lowlands and lower mountain rainforest from 1000—4900 ft.
(300—1500 m). Plants reportedly also occur in Guatemala and Belize, but we
have been unable to find any specific information on the habitat in those
areas.
