Flask Information

You should: Consider getting individual plants or compots instead of a flask.
See if we have plants available in the greenhouse.
Yield Estimate: 420 plants (based on flask surveys done 07/23/2014 through 09/16/2015)
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 15 - 70 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 01/05/2016 through 02/13/2018)
From one most recently surveyed flask 30 - 50 mm (02/13/2018)

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: Ecuador and Peru. In Ecuador, plants have been found growing as epiphytes or terrestrials on steep slopes in wet mountain cloudforest, and many collections have been reported in Pichincha Province at 5600--9850 ft. (1700-3000 m), with fewer collections reported in Cañar Province at 4600-4900 ft. (1400-1500 m). Schweinfurth (1958-1961) included this species as occurring in Peru but gave no details of the habitat there except to report that it was found near Chachapoyas in the department of Amazonas.
