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: Australia. In northeast New South Wales, plants grow in a very limited range along the east coast from near Gympie in southeast Queensland southward to the Hastings River. Plants are almost exclusively lithophytic, growing at moderate elevations to near 3300 ft. (1000 m), usually in exposed locations on boulders and cliff faces near creeks where the branching plants form mats with heavy, long roots that burrow into humus-filled crevices.
