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 Bahama Islands and Florida. This orchid was first
collected near Tampa, Florida in 1846 and is the most common epiphytic
orchid in Florida. Plants grow at low elevations in conditions that vary
from dark, humid, swampy forests to high (relatively), dry, barren trees
in full sun, and Luer (1972) reported that plants survive a hard freeze.
Plants have been found growing on palm trees and on fence posts. In the
Bahamas, plants grow in coppices on Grand Bahama Island and on Andros
Island.
