Comments: Pod parent plant: One of the offspring from our TN4657 effort of 2004. It is unusual in that these Sulawesi specimens have the same sepal shape as plants from the Asian mainland and Philippines, but the color of the North Borneo form.

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: 190 plants (based on flask surveys done 01/07/2015 through 03/06/2015)
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 50 - 80 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 08/09/2015 )
From one most recently surveyed flask 50 - 80 mm (08/09/2015)

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: Widespread from Sikkim and northeastern India across Myanmar (formerly Burma), through Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam, China, Taiwan, Japan, the Ryukyu Islands, Malaya, Sumatra, Borneo, the Celebes, and the Philippines. In Thailand, plants have been collected in the northern mountains in the vicinity of Chiengmai at 3600-5250 ft. (1100-1600 m). In Malaya, plants have been found at various locations at 500-3950 ft. (150-1200 m) and at locations in eastern and southeastern Thailand at 2600-3950 ft. (800-1200 m). In China, plants are found on trees in sparse woods or on cliffs along ravines at 1000-5250 ft. (300-1600 m) in southern Fujian, Taiwan, Guangdong, Hainan, Guangxi, and Yunnan. Plants have been found in many provinces in Sumatra at 1950-4900 ft. (600-1500 m), growing mostly low on tree trunks or on steep earth slopes. In the Philippines, this orchid has been found on Luzon in the provinces of Benguet, Mountain Province, and Nueva Vizcaya. Plants usually grow as a terrestrial, but it is also found in hollow logs on trees at 1000-5900 ft. (300-1800 m).
