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: 560 plants (based on flask surveys done 11/10/2004 through 11/09/2006)
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 3 - 60 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 10/22/2004 through 08/14/2007)
From one most recently surveyed flask 20 - 60 mm (08/14/2007)

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: Madagascar. Plants originate on the central plateau region, which has an average elevation of 2950-4900 ft. (900-1500 m). Specific habitat elevation was not reported for this species, so the temperatures in the following climate table and Cultural Recommendations should be used somewhat cautiously. Pridgeon (1992) reports that Angraecum germinyanum grows on very humid, cloud-covered slopes. Some writers also include the Comoro Islands in the range of distribution for Angraecum germinyanum, but Hillerman and Holst (1986) indicate that it is found only on Madagascar.
