With further research it appears that M. velutina was originally found in upper Assam state as well as the Siang districts of Arunachal Pradesh state in North East India.

This is the lower Himalaya and moderate Himalaya mountain area. The climate varies with the elevation from moist subtropical to temperate. The temperatures in my previous post would be a maximum for the species with a minimum of as low as 66 F/19 C for summer and 43 F/6 C for winter.

As useless information, the M. sanguinea was found at higher elevations than the M. velutina. I haven't heard of that variety before.
