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 eastern states of Brazil. Some writers report occurrence in only Santa Catarina and Minas Gerais, but others also include the states of Sao Paulo, Parana, and Rio Grande do Sul. However, the only specific habitat information we have found gives a location in Santa Catarina about 30 miles (48 km) inland from Camboriu, which is about half-way between Joinville and Florianopolis. Plants grow in wet forests at 1000-2600 ft. (300-800 m)
