Where it grows wild

Lowland to montane forest understory. Species details are scarce; wild Spathiphyllum are typically terrestrial herbs of wet, shaded forest floors and stream banks, and that is assumed here.

Recorded at 37–1900 m, median 1380 m (37 records); the measured sites are at 1250–1500 m.
