ORIGIN/HABITAT: Nepal, northern India, and China, where it is found in the provinces of Anhui, Guizhou, Henan, Hunan, Jiangxi, Sichuan, Yunnan, and Zhejiang, and on Taiwan. C. faberi normally grows as a semiterrestrial or lithophyte on cliffs and steep slopes beside rivers. It may be found in sunny situations growing with species of Miscanthus grass or in the shade of low, scrubby forest. In Taiwan, it usually grows at 5000-10,000 ft. (1500-3000 m), but may occur as low as 3300 ft. (1000 m) in the northern part of the habitat.
