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: Ecuador and Peru. This epiphytic species was first
discovered in northern Peru, but habitat location and elevation were not
given. Plants have since been found in Peru on the western slopes of the
Andes near Huancebamba in the Department of Piura. They grow in patches of
mossy woods at about 9000 ft. (2750 m). This region has low rainfall but
fog is common, and the patches of damp, mossy woods survive in sheltered
valleys. Plants are found in northwest Ecuador in Pichincha Province west
of Quito. In this region, plants grow in luxurious wet forests at about
6550 ft. (2000 m).
