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: Colombia, Costa Rica, Panama, Trinidad, and Venezuela. These plants were first described as coming from near Bogotá in the Eastern Cordillera of Colombia. Plants were growing on ruins and on top of walls at about 2300 ft. (700 m). In Venezuela, Dunsterville & Dunsterville (1988) reported that these plants were once plentiful in the valley around Caracas at about 3000 ft. (910 m) but have slowly disappeared as their habitat has been destroyed by the expanding city. Dunsterville & Garay (1961) report that plants grow in fairly open trees at (100–500 m) along the road from Puerto la Cruz to Cumanacoa as well as being rather widespread in other areas with strong dry seasons. Dressler (1993) reports these plants as growing in the Pacific lowlands of Costa Rica and Panama. Plants have also been reported from Trinidad, but details of the habitat location and elevation were not given.
