ORIGIN/HABITAT: Brazil. This species is found primarily in the states of São Paulo and Paraná, but the habitat extends for a short distance into southern Minas Gerais. Plants usually grow in drier inland areas far from the coast. They are generally found on forest trees along small rivers in shaded, humid habitats. In Minas Gerais, however, where plants are less common, they grow in very bright conditions on small trees on rocky hills or sometimes even on the rocks themselves. Near Piracicaba, plants grow at 1650–1950 ft. (500–600 m).
