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: Costa Rica and Nicaragua. This species was first described from material sent from Guanacaste Province in Costa Rica, but the type was evidently destroyed in the bombing of Berlin. Plants have since been found in central Honduras and in the provinces of Matagalpa, Chontales, and Jinotega in Nicaragua at 2100-4100 ft. (640-1250 m) where they grow in light shade in wet tropical forests.
