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: Peru. The location and type of habitat were not reported
with the original description, but later writings indicate that plants are
found at 7850-9200 ft. (2400-2800 m). Because the habitat location is
uncertain, the following climate data and resulting cultural
recommendations should be used with caution.
