The origin/habitat information below is supplied courtesy of Charles and Margaret Baker
The following information is based on the name of the plant provided by the donor, and assumes that the name is correct. If the plant has been misidentified, then the following information may not be correct.
This text is copyrighted by the Bakers and may not be reproduced without permission.
ORIGIN/HABITAT: Mexico, Central America, the West Indies, and eastern
South America from Venezuela to Argentina. This is the most common and
widespread of the Isochilus species. It may grow on the surface of the
ground or attached to rocks, fallen logs, or trees. Plants grow in dense,
mixed forests or mountain rainforests and collections are reported from
near sea level to as high as about 6550 ft. (0–2000 m). Most plants,
however, are found at 3300-6550 ft. (1000-2000 m).
