Where it grows wild

Specimen notes place it in humid lowland forest, including swamp forest and bamboo-dominated forest. Its growth habit is not well documented; like most Amazonian philodendrons it is treated here as a hemiepiphytic climber.

Specimen elevations run from near sea level to about 2330 m, median about 265 m (271 records).
