A botanical species that finds its place in any orchid collection, discovered near Veracruz, Mexico, by Karl Theodore Hartweg, and described by John Lindley (February 5, 1799 – November 1, 1865, English botanist, gardener, and orchid specialist) in 1837.

Its common name, Coconut Orchid, alludes to the strong scent of the flowers, which recalls the aroma of coconuts.
Because of its wide geographical distribution, Maxillaria tenuifolia easily adapts to a broad range of environmental conditions.
