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. In the state of Espírito Santo, plants grow on
moss- or lichen-covered trees on almost vertical northeast facing slopes
at 1300-2300 ft. (400-700 m), or in open forests of small trees less than
20-30 ft. (6-9 m) tall. This orchid grows 5-10 ft. (1.5-3.0 m) above the
ground where light is high; but in forests with tall 70-100 ft. (21-30 m)
trees, plants grow in the brighter light in the open crowns of the trees.
Cattleya schilleriana Rchb. f. and Cattleya velutina Rchb.f. grow in the
same area, sometimes even on the same trees. Cattleya harrisoniana Bateman
and Cattleya warneri Moore also grow in the same area, but they are
usually found on trees along the river instead of on the cliffs above it.
