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: Mexico south through Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador,
Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, and extends eastward to the islands of
Cuba, Jamaica, and Hispaniola. In Mexico, this orchid is found on both the
eastern and western slopes of the dividing mountain range in the states of
Hidalgo, Puebla, Veracruz, Guerrero, Oaxaca, and Chiapas. Plants grow
attached to trees, rocks, or the surface of the ground. They most often
grow on trees in habitats as varied as mountain rainforest, pine-oak
forest, cloudforest, tropical semideciduous forest, oak forest, and coffee
plantations at 2300-6550 ft. (700-2000 m). In Guatemala, plants usually
grow on trees in wet forests at elevations up to 7850 ft. (2400 m), but
they are occasionally found on rocks or on the ground. In Nicaragua, this
orchid grows both on rocks or in moss on the forest floor in dense, wet
cloudforest near Matagalpa and Jinotega at 3300-4600 ft. (1000-1400 m).
