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: Northern Borneo. Plants are found in only two places on
the lower slopes of Mt. Kinabalu at 1970-3940 ft. (600-1200 m). Plants
grow in leafy humus clinging to the ledges of steep, northeast-facing,
limestone cliffs and slopes. They often grow near running water, 20-40 ft.
(6-12 m) above the stream. They apparently thrive in both high light and
shady situations.
