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: Widespread from Malaya through Borneo, Indonesia, and New Guinea to as far east as Bougainville and the Solomon Islands. This orchid most frequently grows on trees and rocks in lowland forests, usually at elevations below 1000 ft. (300 m). Plants sometimes grow as humus epiphytes in open grassland, however. In Malaya, this lowland orchid is found mostly on trees beside streams in primary forest. In Borneo, plants are found in forests and on cliffs in Kalimantan, Sabah, and Sarawak between sea level and 1950 ft. (0-600 m). In New Guinea, Coelogyne asperata is the most common Coelogyne species and occurs almost everywhere in lowlands. Plants usually grow below 1000 ft. (300 m), but collections are reported near Garaina and several other locations at about 2150 ft. (650 m). O'Byrne (1994) reports finding Coelogyne asperata in Papua New Guinea at 5250 ft. (1600 m). In Bougainville, plants grow at elevations to 3100 ft. (950 m).
