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: Comoro Islands, where it is endemic to Grande Comoro
Island. Habitat elevation was not reported, but topographical maps of the
island shows maximum elevations of 4000-6000 ft. (1220-1830 m). Growers
report that these plants grow are healthiest if temperatures are below the
intermediate-warm range, so we have estimated the habitat elevation at
4000 ft. (1220 m). However, the resulting table and cultural suggestions
should be used somewhat cautiously.
