Where it grows wild

Western Cuba (Pinar del Río). The sources we reached do not record its habitat. The province's forests, pinelands and limestone mogotes all hold epiphytic bromeliads, and this profile assumes an epiphyte in broken shade.

No record carries an elevation. Western Cuba is mostly lowland to low hills (below about 700 m).
