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: Venezuela. Plants were found at about 3300-3950 ft. (1000-1200 m) along the Rîo Calderas near Calderas in the state of Barinas. Plants frequently grow in dense, secondary forest in areas with relatively low humidity. They are always found colonized by ants of either the genus Crematogaster, which is spread world-wide and harmless, or the genus Azteca, which is found only in the neotropics and is stingless but biting and aggressive.
