Paphiopedilum ciliolare is a species of flowering plant in the orchid family, Orchidaceae. It is known commonly as the short haired paphiopedilum. It is endemic to the Philippines.[1]
This is a rare orchid with a total wild population of fewer than 2500 mature individuals. It is heavily collected for the horticulture trade and its forest habitat is threatened with destruction and degradation.[1]
This species is notoriously difficult to propagate. Germination media are most effective when they contain sugar and tryptone.[2]
