Comments: Parent plant: Was labeled Z. mackayi, but is probably Z. intermedium. Dorsal sepal 3.9 cm, lateral sepals 3.5 cm, petals 3.5 cm, lip 4 cm, underside of column very fuzzy, which are characteristics that seem to indicate intermedium.

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: |
320 plants (based on flask surveys done 08/11/2010 through 07/02/2014)
|
Plantlet Sizes: |
From many flasks 30 - 120 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 01/31/2011 through 02/28/2012)
From one most recently surveyed flask 50 - 100 mm (02/28/2012)
