Paphiopedilum haynaldianum

A multi-flowered slipper orchid endemic to the Philippines, recorded from Luzon, Negros and several other islands. It belongs to the same group as P. lowii and P. parishii and carries tall spikes of spotted, long-petalled flowers. Wild data are sparse; conditions here are built from two measured montane sites and specimen notes of rocky forest habitat.

Where it grows wild

Terrestrial or among rocks in forest; one specimen label reads 'in forest, rocky' (Mt Kabatuan, Surigao). Other records come from the Sierra Madre of Luzon, the Cordillera near Sagada and Mt Guiting-Guiting on Sibuyan.

The two measured sites are at about 1100–1450 m; most specimen labels give no elevation.
