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: Hong Kong and in the provinces of Guangdong, Guangxi, and
southeast Yunnan in southeast China, as well as in northeastern Vietnam.
There have been recent reports of collections on Hainan Island. Plants
grow at 100-2300 ft. (30-700 m) on north and northwest facing wooded
slopes near streams. They also grow with their roots embedded in thick,
leafy humus at the base of tall trees, in bamboo thickets along stream
banks, and on rock faces covered in moss. In addition, they have been
reported on steep, rocky slopes growing in light shade beneath low scrub.
In Vietnam, collections have been reported near Nguyen Bin in Cao Bang
Province where plants were growing as lithophytes or terrestrials in shady
areas in primary forests of semi deciduous, broad-leaved trees growing in
rocky, weathered limestone at 4250-4600 ft. (1300-1400 m).
