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: Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, and Panama. At one time, plants were said to have come from Colombia, but we found no record of recent collections, and Escobar (1992) indicated that reports of this species' occurrence in Colombia date from the time when Panama was part of Colombia. In Nicaragua, plants are collected in the departments of Jinotega and Granada at 2600-4600 ft. (800-1400 m). In Costa Rica, plants grow in exceptionally wet areas in Alajuela Province at 2600-3300 ft. (800-1000 m). In Panama, plants are reported in the western province of Chiriquí in dense forests at 3300-4250 ft. (1000-1300 m). We found no additional information about the habitats in Guatemala and Honduras.
