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: The Philippines. This orchid was described in 1991 from plants grown in cultivation. Specific details of habitat location and elevation were not given, but Siegerist (2001) reported that plants "can be grown in a warm to intermediate setting in a basket of pot with the usual loose mix, protection from direct sunlight, and regular, copious watering." Climatological data and elevation have been selected based on this information, but the resulting climate table and cultural suggestions should be used rather cautiously until actual habitat information is known.
