ORIGIN/HABITAT: The Philippine Islands. These plants have been found on Mindanao, Leyte, Biliran, Catanduanes, Palawan, and southern Luzon. The species seems most heavily concentrated on Mindanao, however, where it has been reported in the Provinces of Agusan, Davao, and Surigao. The plants usually grow on tree trunks at low elevations.
