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: Northeast India, Burma, Thailand, and southwest China. Discovered first in the Khasi (Khasia) Hills of northeast India, plants have since been found in the mountain regions of Burma and northern Thailand. They usually grow high up in rough-barked trees that are not exceedingly leafy so that the plants are fully exposed to the sun, rain, and wind. The roots sprawl over the dry rough bark with no moss or lichen present. Therefore, they are able to dry very rapidly after becoming wet. Over most of the range they are found at 3000-5000 ft. (910-1520 m), but in Thailand cultivated plants reportedly grow well under natural conditions in Chiang Mai which is at 1100 ft. (340 m).
