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. Paphiopedilum armeniacum is a found on
limestone hills near streems in a remote area of southwest China near
Bijiang in western Yunnan Province. In forests above the Salween (Nujiang)
River near the border with northeastern Burma at about 26.5N Latitude. It
grows at about 6550 ft. (2000 m) among rocks in semishady mountain
forests. In most habitats, Paphiopedilum armeniacum is a humus epiphyte
with its roots embedded in moss or loose leaf mold.
The nearest weather station is about 95 miles. (150 km) away, but it is
located above the same river valley at about the same elevation, so
conditions should be essentially the same at the 2 locations.
