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: Southeastern Australia from near Sydney to just north of Brisbane. D. cucumerinum was once common along rivers of northern New South Wales, but is now sparsely distributed inland from the coast. Plants normally grow in high light on trees in river valleys, usually hanging over the streams. While they are found at considerable distances inland, the habitat does not extend to the western slopes of the Great Dividing Range.
