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: India. Habitat is somewhat uncertain. Bose & Bhattacharjee (1980) reported plants are found in the Sundarbans, a large swampy area in the delta at the mouth of the Ganges. Pradhan (1979), on the other hand, stated, "Reported from the Upper Gangetic Plains." We have been persuaded by the more positive approach of Bose & Bhattacharjee, however, and have elected use the habitat reported by them. Growers should use the resulting climate data and cultural suggestions somewhat cautiously, however, and if their plant does not grow well, try a little cooler conditions in winter, with a dry season that is a little drier and lasts a little longer than indicated in the following climate table.
