Papilionanthe hookeriana, also known as anggrek pensil in indonesian,[1] or kinta weed,[2] is a species of orchid native to the swamps[1] of Borneo, Malaya, Sumatera, Thailand, and Vietnam.[3]

Description

The peduncle of the inflorescence is longer than the leaves of the plant.[4]

Distribution

The species is native to Vietnam, Malaysia, Indonesia and Thailand.[5]

Habitat

This species is terrestrial or semi-aquatic, as opposed to many other orchid species that are epiphytic. It grows in full sun in swamps near sea level.[6] The plants should be flooded during the growing season.[4] These freshwater swamp forests may grow along the edges of lakes. The soil can be very acidic, with pH values ranging between 4 and 5. [7]

Conservation

These habitats are threatened from logging, fire and land conversion. [8] Therefore, this species has been declining in Indonesia since the early 1990s. A program of the University of Riau made a restoration effort, re-planting artificially multiplied plants back into their intended habitat in 2007 and 2008. [9] Further studies on micropropagation and acclimatisation of plantlets have been undertaken. [10][11]

Use in hybridisation

It is the pollen parent of the hybrid Papilionanthe Miss Joaquim, which was originally hybridised by Agnes Joaquim.
