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: The Greater Antilles from Cuba to the Virgin Islands
except Jamaica. This species is the most widely distributed in the genus.
It grows on twigs, shrubs, and small trees in habitats that range from
arid to very wet from near sea level to about 6550 ft. (0–2000 m). In
Puerto Rico, however, which is near the southern, and therefore warmest,
limit of the range, plants are collected at less than 2600 ft. (800 m) in
both dry and wet areas usually in areas of disturbed vegetation.
