It grows from Central Mexico to Costa Rica at elevations of 100-1,300 meters. It is a mesic species that grows in areas that receive medium to low light and substantial moisture. The petals are spreading and aster violet. It normally produces numerous offsets that separate easily by hand when about one-half to two-thirds adult size. I is usually acquired when about 20 cm in diameter and 10 cm tall. It can be grown much larger with good cultivation.
The plant should be watered frequently in dry climates and moderately in those that are humid because it prefers cool conditions and substantial fresh air movement. Because of the filiform leaf blades, which is an indication of air movement preference, it does not normally flourish indoors. However, it thrives in a patio situation, especially with other plants close by to add humidity. It is a popular species among collectors because of its unusual colour combination and graceful shape.
