Where it grows wild

Not described in detail. Like its relatives in the A. nudicaulis group, it is presumed to grow as an epiphyte or on rocks in Atlantic Forest and its rocky margins, in bright, airy positions.

No elevations recorded; the climate site sits at about 580 m in the Espírito Santo interior.
