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: Madagascar. This orchid is widespread in the central
regions of the island in the area around Antananarivo where it grows in
humid, evergreen forests as an epiphyte on tree trunks , but is found more
often on rocks in situations that Hillerman and Holst (1986) describe as
offering little shade, but Stewart, Hermans, & Campbell (2006) report as
"among bushes or partly shaded forest." In any event, plants are found in
areas with definite wet and dry seasons at 4900-7200 ft. (1500-2200 m).
