Dendrochilum stenophyllum is from Luzon in the Philippines. This species is an epiphyte in rainforests at elevations around 1,000 metres. Inflorescences are nodding and measure c20 cm, and bear 5-10 small flowers that measure about 6 mm across. Pants usually bloom during winter or spring.
 
These are flowering size plants growing in pots. Grow Dendrochilum stenophyllum on a mount, in a pot or in a basket with a sphagnum moss media mixed with bark or perlite. Give your plant moderate light, never direct or bright sunlight and give it a lot of water all year. We grow our plants sitting in trays with a small amount of water or on wet capillary matting in trays. Plants grow well in an intermediate greenhouse and appreciate night-time temperatures of 15-19 degrees and day temperatures of 26 to 29 degrees. This species likes a distinct difference between day and night temperature and cool misty air.
