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. |

475 plants (based on flask surveys done 11/03/2004 through 04/18/2006)
|

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: Northern Madagascar. This terrestrial orchid grows in
mossy cracks in calcareous rocky terrain and semideciduous forest near
Antseranana (formerly Diégo-Suarez). Habitat elevation was not reported,
so the following climate table and cultural suggestions are based on an
estimated elevation and should be used rather cautiously until the actual
habitat elevation is known.
