Where it grows wild

No species-specific habitat notes were found. By the measured range and the genus, it grows in grassland, bushveld and savanna on sandy or stony soils, and its stems twine up through grass and shrubs.

Few records carry an elevation; the climate sites lie on the interior plateau at about 1,160–1,340 m.
