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: Northeast India, Sikkim, Bhutan, southern China, Myanmar (Burma) Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia Thailand, Malaya, and Indonesia. In Sikkim and Bhutan, plants are found in tropical valleys growing on sun-baked rocks at 3300-4350 ft. (1000-1330 m). In China plants grow on trees and rocks at 2300-7200 ft. (700-2200 m) in forests in the provinces of Guangxi, Guizhou, Yunnan, and Xizang as well as on Hainan Island. In Vietnam, this small, creeping epiphyte has been found in the northeast in Cao Bang Province. Plants are reportedly not common in the region and usually are found in the canopies of large trees in open, primary forests of evergreen and semideciduous broad-leaved, mixed, and coniferous trees at 2600-3300 ft. (800-1000 m). In Malaya, this is a common lowland epiphyte, especially in the south. Plans have been found at several locations in southern and western Sumatra growing at 1950-3300 ft. (600-1000 m) and on the Riau Islands at near sea level. On Borneo, plants are found in various types of habitat in Sabah, Sarawak, and Kalimantan at 2600-3950 ft. (800-1200 m).
