We have sold all of the flasks for this item. |

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. |

1260 plants (based on flask surveys done 11/02/2007 through 09/01/2010)

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: Peru, Surinam, Ecuador, and Bolivia. This species was
originally discovered along the Tapanahoni River in Surinam but was never
again found in that locality. Later collections in Surinam were made near
the Curantyne River at King Frederick Williams Fall. In Bolivia, plants
were found at 1500 ft. (450 m) on old citrus trees in wet forest regions
near San Rafael in Chapare Province, which is in the northeastern section
of the Department of Cochabamba. In Peru, plants have been found near
Tingo Maria in the Department of Huanuco as well as in the Departments of
San Martin and Pasco. They generally grow on trees in wet mountain forests
at 1950-3950 ft. (600-1200 m). Habitat information for plants found in
Ecuador is not available. Bennett and Christenson (1993) state that
between 1961-1989 collections made in Ecuador, Peru, and Bolivia were
mistakenly identified as Psychopsis sanderae Rolfe.
