Where it grows wild

An epiphyte or lithophyte of subtropical monsoon forest in the valleys of Longling County, western Yunnan; the protologue was not reachable, so elevation and forest type are inferred from the county's terrain, which runs from about 600 m in the Nujiang valley to over 2000 m. The climate site is a country placeholder in Guizhou at 1010 m.

No measured elevation; hoyas of western Yunnan grow mostly between 700 and 1600 m.
