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: Colombia and Venezuela. In Venezuela, this epiphytic plant
has been found in the Federal District at 4250-4900 ft. (1300-1500 m), at
numerous locations in the state of Bolívar at 4600-6700 ft. (1400-2040 m),
in the state of Carabobo with no details reported, in the state of Miranda
at 1650-3300 ft. (500-1000 m), and in the state of Sucre at 2450-2800 ft.
(750-850 m). Dunsterville & Garay (1959) reported plants were prolific
along the Tiara road, growing fairly low and damp in tall forest. We were
unable to find any details of the habitat in Colombia.
