Culture Notes from Donor: Pod parent plant: I am currently growing it in a clay pot with Aliflor and coconut husks but am considering a mount as it appears to be somewhat pendant.
Comments: Pod parent plant: Was previously called Encyclia alata var. purpurata. Pleasantly fragrant and much smaller growing than E. alata.

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. |
