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: Burma and China. Vanda brunnea. was first found near Ta-ok
in the Tenasserim region of Burma. Plants have since been found near
Moulmein and at other locations in the Tenasserim region of southeast
Burma. Hawkes (1965) reported that Vanda denisoniana var. hegraica occurs
in Arrakan Mountains of southwest Burma, which is the same region where
Vanda denisoniana is found. This orchid is also known to occur in China
where it grows in southwest Yunnan Province at 3300-5250 ft. (1000-1600
m). In the past, this species has also been listed as occurring in
Thailand, but Seidenfaden (1988) indicated that it is questionable as to
whether or not these collections are actually Vanda brunnea. Habitat
elevation for Vanda brunnea and its synonyms has not been reported in the
Burma habitat, but Vanda denisoniana grows at 2000-2500 ft. (610-760 m) in
southwest Burma, and we have elected to use a habitat elevation for
Moulmein that results in conditions similar to those habitats. Growers
should use the resulting temperatures somewhat cautiously, however.
