Guatemala, plants grow at 4900 ft. (1500 m) or less, in the Department of
Alta Verapaz near Cobán, in the Department of Guatemala near Guatemala
City, and on the lower, southeast-facing slopes of Volcán Santa María in
the Department of Quezaltenango as well as other places. In El Salvador,
plants are found near San Vincente at 3950–4900 ft. (1200–1500 m). In
