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: Colombia. Plants were originally found in the Magdalena
River Valley at an unspecified location and elevation. They have since
been found along the same river and its tributaries in the departments of
Huila, Tolima and Cundinamarca. In earlier times Cattleya trianae was
reportedly widespread in all 3 Cordilleras between about 2 and 5 north
latitude, but they are now rare because of excessive over-collection and
habitat destruction. In years past, the better forms were reportedly found
mostly in the Huila region, but most plants now in cultivation originated
in Tolima. Plants grow near rivers or streams on trees and rocks at
2600-4900 ft. (800-1500 m). They are found in a rather dry region where
numerous cacti and succulent bromeliads also grow.
