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: Endemic to southern Mexico. Plants are found mainly on the
slopes facing the Gulf of Mexico in the States of Hidalgo, Veracruz,
Puebla, Oaxaca and Chiapas. They are also found on the Pacific slopes in
Chiapas. Plants usually grow as epiphytes in mountain rainforests and
cloudforests at 1950-5900 ft. (600-1800 m), but they are occasionally
found as lithophytes and terrestrials.
