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.

ORIGIN/HABITAT: New Guinea and the Molucca Islands. In Western Province of
Papua New Guinea, plants grow at low elevations along swampy rivers. In
Irian Jaya, plants were collected along the Noord River. On the other
hand, Dendrobium crepidiferum J. J. Smith, now considered a synonym of
Dendrobium glomeratum, was found on Ternate Island in the Moluccas where
plants were reported as growing in old forests at about 3950 ft. (1200 m).
They have also been reported at higher elevations on Halmahera Island.
