Culture Notes from Donor: Parent plant: Temperature range I (60-83°F). Dale Borders and Marianna Max both have plants of this cultivar; Marianna Max's plant is mounted.
Comments: A miniature species with flowers fragrant of jasmine. Although flowers are ephemeral, growths bloom repeatedly.
Parent plant: Wonderfully fragrant, but the flowers generally only last for a day. The plants bloom 4 or 5 times a year in a flush, usually after a large storm front moves through the area. Miniature.

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: Common and widespread throughout southeast Asia.
Distribution extends from northeastern India southward through the
peninsula region of Burma and Thailand, into Malaya, Sumatra, Java, and
Borneo. Plants are also reported near Dalat, Vietnam. Other than D.
crumenatum Swartz, D. pachyphyllum is considered the most common orchid on
the Thai Islands in the Andaman Sea. In Java, the plants grow from sea
level to 3300 ft. (0-1000 m); and in Borneo, they are reported at
1950-6900 ft. (600-2100 m). They are found low on tree trunks in swamps,
orchards, open country, and along the roadside. The orchids rarely grow in
primary forests and never where light is low.
