Coelogyne hitendrae

A Himalayan epiphytic Coelogyne known from Assam, the eastern Himalaya, Nepal and Myanmar, with very few wild records. Grow it like other cool-to-intermediate Himalayan coelogynes: bright filtered light, a wet warm summer and a cool, drier winter rest that triggers flowering.

Where it grows wild

Like most Himalayan coelogynes it is presumed to grow on mossy tree trunks and branches in montane forest. No species-specific habitat notes were found, and there are no georeferenced wild records.

No recorded elevations; the climate sites span 83 to 3,376 m and do not pin down its real altitude.
