Dendrobium bukidnonense

A Philippine Dendrobium described by Ames and Quisumbing in 1936. Its type was a plant grown in the Bureau of Science orchid house in Manila, and the name points to Bukidnon province on Mindanao. Nothing is recorded about its wild habitat, so the advice below is a cautious intermediate-temperature guess.

Where it grows wild

No wild habitat data. The only specimen was grown in cultivation. Assumed to be a forest epiphyte.

Unknown. Bukidnon is mostly an upland plateau at about 300 to 2900 m, so a mid-elevation origin is plausible but unconfirmed.
