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: Brazil, including the States of Sergipe, Minas Gerais, Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, Paraná, Santa Catarina, and Rio Grande do Sul. Most current writers report that plants are found in a variety of habitats including cool mountains, hot lowlands, savannahs, and everything in-between. Also, Brazilian collections are reported in the States of Mato Grosso, Ceará, Bahia, Pernambuco, and near Brasilia in the Distrito Federal. However, this distribution is reported when Brassavola perrinii is listed as a synonym. As previously stated for Brassavola perrinii, we suspect that plants found in warmer coastal regions may be Brassavola tuberculata, while those from cooler inland areas actually may be Brassavola perrinii.
