Culture Notes from Donor: Parent plant: Temperature range I (60-83°F). Grown in cultivation on Guam in full sun.
Comments: A terrestrial orchid of the savanna grasslands of Rota, and has also been found on Palau. It is similar to S. plicata, though flowers are larger, more erect, and have a heart-shaped lip. Seed capsules on S. carolinensis are less abundant in the wild than on S. plicata. S. carolinensis also tends to have many more flowers open at a time than S. plicata.
Parent plant: Medium-sized plant.

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. |
