ORIGIN/HABITAT: The Indonesian Islands of Ambon and Buru in the Moluccas. Some writers report Paphiopedilum mastersianum also occurs on Ceram Island. Plants usually grow in pockets of humus on steep cliff faces at 2950-6550 ft. (900-2000 m). Paphiopedilum mastersianum grows in moderate shade in areas where seepage, mists, and condensation ensures moisture during the dry season.
