Coelogyne miniata

A small epiphytic Coelogyne with orange to red flowers from the mountains of Java, Bali, Lombok and Sumatra. It grows in cool, wet montane forest with a short, drier spell in July–September, so grow it cool and humid and water a little less in that drier season.

Where it grows wild

Epiphyte on mossy branches in montane rain and cloud forest; conditions are built from the measured climate and what is known for montane Coelogyne.

Few records carry an elevation; the climate sites span about 800–2,200 m, plus one at about 3,200 m that is likely a coarse location.
