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: Colombia, Venezuela, Ecuador, and Peru. In Venezuela, many
collections are reported from the District Federal around Caracas and in
the neighboring state of Aragua near Colonia Tovar. Plants, which are both
terrestrial and epiphytic, have been found at 3950-7550 ft. (1200-2300 m),
and Dunsterville and Garay (1959) reported that plants are very common in
the Venezuelian habitat where they are found in light forest and fairly
open ground. In Peru, plants have been found on the western slopes of the
Andes in the Department of Cajamarca where they grow as terrestrials or
epiphytes in cool, wet, cloudforest at 9500 ft. (2900 m) with the long
inflorescences climbing in thick brush.
