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: Ecuador and Peru. In Ecuador, plants have been found
growing as epiphytes or terrestrials on steep slopes in wet mountain
cloudforest, and many collections have been reported in Pichincha Province
at 5600--9850 ft. (1700-3000 m), with fewer collections reported in Cañar
Province at 4600-4900 ft. (1400-1500 m). Schweinfurth (1958-1961) included
this species as occurring in Peru but gave no details of the habitat there
except to report that it was found near Chachapoyas in the department of
Amazonas.
