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: 270 plants (based on flask surveys done 06/01/2006 through 01/17/2007)
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 20 - 35 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 01/29/2007 through 07/10/2007)
From one most recently surveyed flask 20 - 30 mm (07/10/2007)

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: Java. The plant is rather common in east Java where its distribution is confined to the seasonal conditions found on the drier northern slopes of the mountains, particularly Mt. Tengger and Mt. Arjuno, at 2950-5000 ft. (900-1520 m). They generally are found high up on isolated tree trunks and branches where light levels are high. Although reported as occurring in both Sumatra and Malaya, Seidenfaden & Wood (1992) reported that the description of the Malayan plant was based on a cultivated plant in Singapore that supposedly had originated in the Taiping Hills, but later collections have not been made. Comber (2001) reported that the Sumatran record was of a cultivated plant reportedly collected in West Sumatra, but that he had not seen a collection from the wild. He stated that the reports of occurrence in both Malaya and Sumatra are in doubt because the species in Java is confined to a region with a seasonal climate while the climate in both Sumatra and Malaya is relatively without season.
