Papilionanthe pedunculata is a species of epiphytic orchid native to Cambodia, and Vietnam.[4] This species is a floristic component of the South Annamese endemism center, which is characterised by isolated, uplifted plateaux and high mountain systems.[5] They are also found in dry lowland Dipterocarp forests in southern Vietnam. The plant has obvious xeromorphic features and is adapted to these dry conditions.[6] The cool-growing plant occurs at 1200 to 1300 m. The plants are large and terete.[7]
