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: 258 plants (based on flask surveys done 12/17/2001 through 03/26/2003)
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 8 - 45 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 12/17/2001 through 03/26/2003)
From one most recently surveyed flask 25 - 45 mm (03/26/2003)

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: Ecuador. This orchid grows as an epiphyte in dry forest on spiny acacia or cactus, often in dry and barren chaparral areas of coastal Ecuador where humidity is low, days are warm, but moisture is available from nighttime fog and dew. Plants are found in the coastal plains, usually at elevations below 150 ft. (50 m), from near Manta in Manabi Province southward to El Oro Province, with particularly numerous collections in the vicinity of Guayaquil in Guayas Province.
