Where it grows wild

Probably an epiphyte in montane cloud forest, like other high-Andean Columnea; the records we could read carry no habitat notes. Built from the measured data and what is known for epiphytic Columnea in general; nothing species-specific on cultivation was found.

Records span 1700-2700 m, median 2349 m (60 records).
