Very easy to grow plant blooms in fall and early winter. 

ORIGIN/HABITAT: Northeast India. Paphiopedilum spicerianum is found along the Burmese border in the states of Mizoram and Manipur. It grows in the Barak and Sonai River gorges in the region near Slitter, and plants have also been reported in extreme northwest Burma. Paphiopedilum spicerianum grows on limestone outcrops and cliffs at 1000-4250 ft. (300-1300 m), shaded by ferns and gingers. Plants, which are usually found in shallow, humus-filled pockets in the limestone with their roots anchored to the rocks, also grow in moss and thick humus at the base of trees and on moss covered rocks. Paphiopedilum spicerianum grows where water is always available. Even during the winter dry season moisture is obtained from mists rising daily in the river gorges and from water seepages along the cliff faces that keep the substratum constantly moist. -- Source: Charles Baker.  Plants are blooming size in 3.5" pots.
