Dischidia rimicola

A mainland South-East Asian Dischidia described by Kerr in 1939; 'rimicola' means 'living in cracks'. Records come from 1,050–1,675 m in Thailand and Vietnam, so it wants mild days, cool nights and a dry winter.

Where it grows wild

Recorded at 1,050–1,675 m, median 1,250 m (four records with elevations).
