Where it grows wild

No habitat details were found for this species. Bornean Paphiopedilum usually grow on the forest floor or on limestone or rocky slopes in deep leaf litter under closed canopy; this is assumed here.

Unknown; the climate site sits at about 430 m, typical of Bornean hill-forest Paphiopedilum.
