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:	15 plants (based on flask surveys done 05/23/2025 ) 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.
You might also want to:	View the seed assay for this item. View items of the same species. View items of the same genus.
