ORIGIN/HABITAT: Widespread in Southeast Asia. Plants grow in southern and eastern India and the tropical valleys of Sikkim and Nepal where they are found at about 3300 ft. (1000 m). Distribution extends into Burma, southwest China, Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, Malaya, and South Andaman Island. In Burma, plants grow near Moulmein in the Tenasserim Range at 500-4250 ft. (150-1300 m). In China, they are found at 3300-5900 ft. (1000-1800 m). Plants known as D. pierardii are usually found in mangrove swamps. They are normally epiphytic, but in deforested areas, they may grow lithophytically.
