Where it grows wild

Probably grows low on mossy rocks, banks and forest floor in shaded montane forest. This is inferred from the name, which suggests a ground-hugging habit, and from related Chinese spleenworts. No habitat text for the species was reachable.

Records range from 1739 to 2475 m, with a median of 2050 m (6 records).
