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: Eastern Australia. The habitat extends from near Kiama in
southern New South Wales to the just north of Cairns near the Bloomfield
River in Queensland. The habitat varies considerably. Plants usually grow
on trees in shady rainforests, but they are occasionally found on rocks or
in coastal scrub and open forest, frequently in very sunny situations. In
the northern part of the habitat, plants are found only in the mountains
and on tablelands.
