Culture Notes from Donor: Parent plant: Temperature range I (60-83°F). A slight reduction (5-7°F) of winter diurnal range helps induce bloom.
Comments: A floriferous and rewarding species. Plants branch easily and soon become specimen size. A 5-7°F reduction of both maximum and minimum temperatures in the winter helps induce bloom.

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: Endemic to Madagascar, it grows in shady, humid forests at
2624-5576 ft. (800-1700 m), which normally implies adaptability. The plant
is found in only 2 locations on the island, at the warmer, northern
location it grows at higher elevations, and at the cooler, southern end it
is found at lower elevations . The climate information given here
represents the southern location and the records are adjusted to the
median elevation for that location.
