Distribution : D'après Staples (2007): "Presumed native to the West Indies (Staples and Austin 1981), from where it was first described; naturalized in the Pacific. Cultivated in India (Kerala)." Initialement considéré par Staples & Austin (1981) comme un simple cultivar récemment sélectionné dans les Antilles à partir des populations introduites de Operculina turpethum.

Statut biogéographique : Probablement cultivée, au moins occasionnellement, en Guyane française: cultivée au Suriname (Peter 1891, van Ooststroom 1932, Austin, in Funk et al. 2007), et largement cultivée dans les Antilles et autres territoires ultramarins français.
