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: |
37 plants (based on flask surveys done 11/25/2002 )
|
| Plantlet Sizes: |
From many flasks 30 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 02/11/2003 )
From one most recently surveyed flask 30 mm (02/11/2003)
