Dendrobium moulmeinense

Dendrobium moulmeinense is a name for a Moulmein (Mawlamyine, Myanmar) orchid that is widely treated as a synonym: the Warner and Williams name of 1893 is placed under Dendrobium infundibulum, and an earlier Parish name under Dendrobium devonianum. GBIF has no wild records for it, so the advice below follows D. infundibulum, a cool-growing, white-flowered cane Dendrobium of mountain forest in mainland Southeast Asia.

Where it grows wild

If it is D. infundibulum, it is an epiphyte of montane evergreen forest, growing on tree trunks and branches in bright light.

No elevations for this name. D. infundibulum is generally a plant of hill and mountain forest, so a cool-intermediate regime is assumed.
