| 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: |
188 plants (based on flask surveys done 09/28/2010 through 02/09/2012)
|
| Plantlet Sizes: |
From many flasks 40 - 110 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 01/05/2011 through 04/25/2012)
From one most recently surveyed flask 50 - 80 mm (04/25/2012)

ORIGIN/HABITAT: Originally found in Colombia near Cartagena, Oncidium
cebolleta, the most widely distributed of all Oncidium species, is now
known to occur from Mexico through the West Indies and Central and South
America to as far south as Brazil, Paraguay, and Argentina. These plants
generally grow at below 1950 ft. (600 m) in semiarid regions or in areas
with a pronounced dry season. Plants have, however, been reported from
moist forest areas and from elevations as high as 5900 ft. (1800 m). In
Mexico, these plants grow as epiphytes in both semiarid scrub and humid
forests from sea level to 5900 ft. (1800 m), with reports of plants from
as high as 7850 ft. (2400 m), and have been reported from the states of
Chiapas, Guerrero, Jalisco, México, Michoacán, Morelos, Nayarit, Oaxaca,
Sinaloa, Sonora, Veracruz, and Yucatán. Dunsterville and Garay (1961)
reported this species as, "Common in most relatively hot parts of
Venezuela with fairly long dry season, e.g. surroundings of Lake
Valencia." In Surinam, plants are known only from the coastal plain; but
in Brazil they are found almost throughout the tropical regions, with
occurrences reported in the Amazon Basin as well as the northeast,
southeast, and the central western regions including the states of Acre,
Amazonas, Pará, Piaui, Pernambuco, Bahia, Espírito Santo, Goiás,
Tocantins, Mato Grosso, Minas Gerais, Roraima, and São Paulo. In Peru,
plants discussed as Oncidium sprucei Lindley by Dodson and Bennett (1989)
were found in the Department of San Martin. They were growing as epiphytes
in tropical wet forest in bright light on old citrus trees near Moyobamba
and about 3 mi. (5 km) south of Tocache at 1300 ft. (400 m).
