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: Widely distributed from Florida through the West Indies,
Mexico, and most of Central America. Distribution extends southward to
include of temperate and tropical South America to as far south as
Argentina. The plant was discovered in Florida in Hernando County in 1881
and was not collected again for 80 years when plants were found in a
hardwood hammock south of Miami. In Jamaica, plants are found in numerous
locations on the island, growing in cool, shaded locations. Plants have
been found in numerous locations in Puerto Rico where they grow as
terrestrials in shady sites in the understory of moist and wet forests at
650-3100 ft. (200-950 m). Plants have been reported as occurring in the
Virgin Islands on St. Croix, St. John, St. Thomas, and Tortola. Details of
the habitat in the Virgin Islands were not reported. In Mexico, plants
have been found in the states of Veracruz, Morelos, Guerrero, and Oaxaca,
but details of habitat location and elevation were not reported. In
Guatemala, Ames & Correll [(1952-1953, and 1965) 1985] reported that these
plants have been found in many locations around the country, growing in
leaf mold and loamy soil in forests and dense thickets at elevations up to
9850 ft. (3000 m).
