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: Widespread in Southeast Asia. Plants grow in southern and
eastern India and the tropical valleys of Sikkim and Nepal where they are
found at about 3300 ft. (1000 m). Distribution extends into Burma,
southwest China, Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, Malaya, and South Andaman
Island. In Burma, plants grow near Moulmein in the Tenasserim Range at
500-4250 ft. (150-1300 m). In China, they are found at 3300-5900 ft.
(1000-1800 m). Plants known as D. pierardii are usually found in mangrove
swamps. They are normally epiphytic, but in deforested areas, they may
grow lithophytically.
