| 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: |
1210 plants (based on flask surveys done 01/07/2010 through 10/05/2011)
|

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: West Africa. Plants grow in forests in Cameroon and
Nigeria. Specific details of habitat elevation have not been reported, but
Hutchinson & Dalziel (1968) reported that plants have been found near
Calabar, Nigera, and La Croix & La Croix (1997) reported that these plants
grow in similar habitat to Ancistrochilus rothschildianus and should
thrive in the same conditions.
