Where it grows wild

No wild records with coordinates were available. Colombian Restrepias are small epiphytes of mossy montane and cloud forest; that is assumed here.

Unknown for this species; Andean Restrepias usually grow around 1500 to 2500 m, much higher than the 174 m centroid used for the climate.
