ORIGIN/HABITAT: Burma (now Myanmar). Paphiopedilum charlesworthii has been collected in the Shan states near the border with Thailand and China. Moore, the original collector, reported finding plants 25 miles (40 km) southwest and 40 miles (64 km) northeast of Lake Inle. Plants were growing on high, steep, isolated peaks, usually on west or northwest facing slopes at 3940-5250 ft. (1200-1600 m). Plants were usually found growing in shade with their roots clinging tenaciously to the rocks, but some were also found growing in more exposed locations in crevices of bare rock.
