Pod Parent Inflorescence
 
 
Culture Notes from Donor: Parent plant: Temperature range W (70-90°F). This plant is currently growing mounted on a coconut tree in shade, but could probably do well in bright diffused light. Likes water and good air flow, but the roots like to dry out between waterings.
 
Comments: All Robiquetia in Micronesia are lumped together as lutea, though some indicate there is a difference between Palau and Chuuk species.

Parent plant: This individual is from Palau. Flowers are small, but the plant is medium-sized and has a vining style of growth. The flowers are orange, yellow and red in color and are cup-shaped. 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.
Yield Estimate: 180 plants (based on flask surveys done 02/10/2003 )
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 2 - 30 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 02/10/2003 through 11/03/2003)
From one most recently surveyed flask 20 - 30 mm (11/03/2003)
