Flask Information
Availability: We have approximately 340 plants in intermediate-stage flasks, but this may not be enough to make flasks for new requests, because we are still making flasks for prior requests.
You should: Reserve a flask now. Even though we might not have enough plants, if someone drops out ahead of you you many get a flask. If you wait, this will be less likely because you would be further down on the list.
Yield Estimate: 408 plants (based on flask surveys done 04/12/2023 through 10/15/2023)
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 5 - 20 mm plants (based on flask surveys done 05/10/2023 through 08/27/2023)
From one most recently surveyed flask 15 - 20 mm (08/27/2023)
Expected Flask Price: $40.00 per flask of 16 (min.) plants
Plants proliferate if crowded, so are planted more sparsely than usual.

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: Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua. In Mexico, plants grow on the Central Plateau in Chiapas and in the Sierra Madre Oriental in Oaxaca. Plants grow on trees in relatively humid forests of pine or deciduous oak, usually at 4600–5250 ft. (1400–1600 m), rarely as high as 6550 ft. (2000 m). In Guatemala, they grow in trees in open or damp forests, or on the ground in sheltered ravines, at up to 6500 ft. (2000 m). In Nicaragua, plants grow on trees in forests of uniformly large oaks at 3600–4600 ft. (1100–1400 m), although one collection at 1300 ft. (400 m) was reported.
