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: California and Oregon. Distribution extends from the
extreme southwestern tip of Oregon into northern California to as far
south as Marin County and eastward almost the Nevada border. Most
collections, however, have been made in the extreme northwestern coastal
section of California, and many of the populations further south have
destroyed by development and collectors. Plants have been found at
elevations of 1500-5250 ft. (450-1600 m), always in wet, marshy places.
The grow beside steep mountain streams around springs and water seepages,
and their roots are always found in running water that percolates through
the substrate. Plants usually grow in areas of weathered Serpentine and
are often found growing with Darlingtonia californica (the carnivorous
pitcher plant).
