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: Peninsular Thailand, Malaya, Sumatra, Borneo, and
throughout the Philippines. The species has also been reported in Java and
Vietnam but is evidently rather rare in these locations. In Malaya, plants
have been found near Melaka (Malacca) and in the States of Johore and
Pahang. In Sumatra, plants have been collected near Palembang. In Borneo,
they are found in Kalimantan and Sabah, but details of habitat location
were not given. These plants normally grow in the forks of forest trees
but are occasionally found on rocks. They usually grow in lowland and
lower mountain forests from near sea level to 3950 ft. (1200 m), but
plants have been reported from elevations as high as 7200 ft. (2200 m).
