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: 1 plants (based on flask surveys done 04/16/2000 )
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.
You might also want to: View items of the same species.

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: Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Costa Rica, and Panama. In Colombia, these plants were first found in the Department of Cauca where they were growing in trees of moist forests near Popayán at 5250-6550 ft. (1600-2000 m). They have since been found at numerous other locations in western and southern Colombia at 3300-6550 ft. (1000-2000 m). Collections have also been made in Ecuador, mostly at 4250-5900 ft. (1300-1800 m), but with plants reported from as low as 1000 ft. (300 m) and from as high as 10,750 ft. (3280 m). Plants have also been found in Peru in the Department of Amazonas with no additional details reported. Plants formerly known as Restrepia subserrata Schlechter are found in Costa Rica and Panama. In Panama, they have been found in Chiriquí Province at 5900-6550 ft. (1800-6550 m). Luer (1996) stated, "As presently conceived, R. trichoglossa is a frequent, widely distributed species-complex that occurs from Chiapas, Mexico, through Central America into the Andes of Colombia, Ecuador and Peru.
