Vanda cootesii

A Philippine Vanda described by Motes in 2016. We found no published habitat details, so these conditions are generalised from warm lowland Philippine vandas and a placeholder climate on Mindoro's coast.

Where it grows wild

A monopodial epiphyte; the habitat and island of origin are not documented in the sources we could open.

Elevation is unknown; the measured climate is from a coastal placeholder at about 10 m.
