Where it grows wild

No habitat description was found. The records come from the high Serra do Mar around Nova Friburgo, an area of montane cloud forest and granite outcrops where vrieseas grow on trees and on rock.

The recorded site is at about 1550 m, well above its grid cell (about 460 m); temperatures are corrected for this.
