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: Brazil. This species is found primarily in the states of São Paulo and Paraná, but the habitat extends for a short distance into southern Minas Gerais. Plants usually grow in drier inland areas far from the coast. They are generally found on forest trees along small rivers in shaded, humid habitats. In Minas Gerais, however, where plants are less common, they grow in very bright conditions on small trees on rocky hills or sometimes even on the rocks themselves. Near Piracicaba, plants grow at 1650–1950 ft. (500–600 m).
