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, French Guiana, Surinam, Guyana, Venezuela, and
Colombia. Plants are found at rather low elevations, and in Venezuela have
been found near El Pao in the northern part of the state of Bolívar at
about 1500 ft. (450 m). Although reported in the past to occur in Costa
Rica, Dressler (1993) did not reflect this distribution and reported that
the Costa Rican species, Epidendrum glumibracteum is similar to Epidendrum
purpuascens. Therefore, the reports of the occurrence in Costa Rica are
possibly the result of confusion and misidentification between these two
species.
