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: Plants are found in the southeastern Mexican states of
Yucatan and Quintana Roo with distribution extending through the
Caribbean-facing lowlands of Belize into Honduras. They grow on stunted
trees in hot, humid lowlands near sea level. There have been some reports
of occurrences in Nicaragua and Guatemala, but we have been unable to
locate any details relating to collections or habitat location in these
areas.
