Where it grows wild

Twigs and small branches in humid montane forest and forest edges, where mist is frequent. Generalised from the genus and its recorded altitude; little species-specific habitat detail is published.

Most records lie at 1,460–2,200 m, median 1,695 m; the 5,500 m record is an error.
