Flask Information
Availability: The seeds have germinated in the mother flasks.
You should: Reserve flasks right now.
Please only reserve if you are committing to purchase the flasks when they are ready later.

We only make flasks for people who request them, so you must make a reservation for us to do the work. If you don't reserve now, there will likely not be enough flasks made to cover your later need. If you wait to reserve until after we begin reflasking into final maturing flasks, then you will lose your place in line. Otherwise, your original notification request acts as your place-holder, keeping you earlier in line.
Yield Estimate: 180 plants (based on flask surveys done 10/14/2023 )
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.
Expected Flask Price: $40.00 per flask of 16 (min.) plants
Flasks are planted more sparsely than usual because the plants spread horizontally and would crowd each other too much.

ORIGIN/HABITAT: The Philippines. Plants are found on Luzon Island near Balete Pass in the province of Nueva Ecija as well as the province of Nueva Vizcaya and on the island of Leyte in the Visaya group of islands. The most recent information indicates plants grow as epiphytes at 350-2150 ft. (100-650 m), but some earlier writers reported that plants were found on eastern mountain slopes at 4500 ft. (1372 m).
