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.

ORIGIN/HABITAT: Widespread from Nepal and the eastern Himalaya region
through Southeast Asia, Malaya, and China, with distribution extending to
Hainan Island, Taiwan, the Philippines, the Ryukyu Island and Japan.
Plants have also been reported from Borneo and Java. In the Himalaya
region, plants have been reported from several areas in Bhutan, in
Darjeeling, in Sikkim, and the Khasia Hills at 4250-6900 ft, (1300-2100
m). In China, plants have been found in the provinces of Jiangxi, Fujan,
Guangdong, Guangxi, Sichuan, Guizhou, Yunnan, and Xizang where plants grow
on trees and rocks in forests, on the edge of forests, or along valleys at
2600-7550 ft. (800-2300 m). These plants have been found in western
Thailand from the northwest mountains at 5000-5600 ft. (1520-1700 m)
southward to peninsular Thailand, with no habitat elevations reported in
the southern locations. In Vietnam. This lithophytic orchid is found in
the northeastern province of Cao Bang. Plants are rather common in this
area, growing in open areas in mossy primary forests of semideciduous,
mixed, and coniferous trees found on rocky, weathered limestone at
1950-4900 ft. (600-1500 m). In Malaya, this orchid has been recorded only
from Gunng Raya on Langkawi, an island just off the northwest coast near
the border with Thailand. This orchid is reported to be fairly common in
both East, where it grows south of G. Semeru at 2700 ft. (820 m) and West
Java where it is found at 3300-4100 ft. (1000-1250 m). On Borneo, plants
are know from Kalimantan and Sabah where they are found on hill and lower
montane forest at 3950-4900 ft. (1200-1500 m). This orchid is rather
widespread in the Philippines, but details of habitat location and
elevation were not given. On Taiwan, plants are said to be found in the
lowlands at up to 3950 ft. (1200 m).
Because of the wide range in distribution and habitat elevation, two
CLIMATE tables are included below. One CLIMATE table represents the
warmer, tropical portion of the habitat, while the other is for the
cooler, more temperate part of the habitat. The two CLIMATE tables give
some indication of the range of conditions to which Liparis bootanensis
should adapt.
