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: Mexico, Belize, Guatemala, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa
Rica, Panama, the West Indies including Puerto Rico and the Virgin
Islands, Colombia, Venezuela, the Guianas, and Brazil. In Mexico, plants
are found in the states of Campeche, Chiapas, Colima, Guerrero, Jalisco,
Michoacán, Nayarit, Oaxaca, and Veracruz. This species is not only
distributed over a very large area, but plants have been reported at
elevations from near sea level to about 8200 ft. (0-25,000 m). Plants grow
in dense clumps, forming large colonies on boulders, cliff faces, and tree
trunks. In western Mexico, plants are found in humid tropical forest or
oak forest at 2600-4900 ft. (800-1500 m). In Puerto Rico, plants grow in
dry and wet forests from near sea level to about 2800 ft. (0-850 m), but
they are not found in either the wettest or driest areas of the island. In
Panama, plants have been collected in Chiriquí Province at 2950-4250 ft.
(900-1300 m). In Venezuela, these plants are common in the Coast Range and
the Andes at 2500-4000 ft. (760-1220 m).
