| 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: |
32 plants (based on flask surveys done 01/21/2000 )

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.

ORIGIN/HABITAT: Mexico southward to Honduras and El Salvador. In Belize,
plants grow near the Cayo (Mt. Pine Ridge Reserve) and Toledo Districts in
riverine forests. Earlier writers reported the occurrence of this species
in Panama, but Dressler in, "A Checklist of the Orchids of Panama as Known
Today", which was appended to the 1980 publication of, "Orchids of Panama"
by L. O. Williams and Paul H. Allen, reported that these plants were
actually S. costaricensis. Plants in El Salvador collected at Boquerón, in
the crater of the San Salvador volcano at 5900 ft. (1800 m) and in Cerro
Grande de Apaneca at 4900 ft. (1500 m) that were originally discussed as
S. wardii by Hamer (1964) were later reported by Hamer (1970) to actually
be S. graveolens. The plants discussed as S. wardii by Ames and Correll
(1952-1965), which were said to grow as epiphytes on trees and on rocks in
humid forests at elevations up to 8850 ft. (2700 m), should probably be
referred to as S. graveolens. Some reports include Brazil in the range of
distribution, but many current authorities suspect that those reports
probably refer to a different species.
