Maxillaria donaldeedodii

A Maxillaria known only from Haiti, with no wild GBIF records and almost nothing published on its habitat. Until better data exist, grow it like other Hispaniolan Maxillaria: intermediate temperatures, bright shade, high humidity and steady moisture.

Where it grows wild

Habitat is not documented in the sources available; by analogy with other Hispaniolan Maxillaria it is probably an epiphyte of humid hill or montane forest.

Unknown; no records with elevation exist.
