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: |
29 plants (based on flask surveys done 02/11/2019 )
|
Plantlet Sizes: |
From many flasks 4 - 12 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 02/11/2019 )

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: Southwest China. Plants grow along the eastern edge of the
Guizhou Plateau in Yunnan and Guangxi provinces. They are usually found on
northeast facing rock walls at 1500-2300 ft. (460-700 m). They grow where
concretions formed when limestone dissolved by rain and mist hardens with
sand, clay impurities, and humus in cracks and fissures. These
concretions, which resemble a mud wasp nest in texture, are kept
continuously moist from water seepage, and they are often are covered with
a moss which retains additional moisture. Paphiopedilum emersonii grows in
the moss with roots penetrating to the surface of the moist concretion
below.
