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,. This orchid is known only from Colombia where
it was collected in the department Meta about 12 miles (20 km) west of
Villavicencio on the road to Bogota, but the habitat elevation was not
reported. The following climate table and cultural suggestions are,
therefore, based on estimated elevations suggested by topographical maps
of the area and should be used somewhat cautiously until actual elevations
are known.
