Culture Notes from Donor: Parent plant: Temperature range CI (58-75°F). Likes low to moderate light levels and high humidity. As with other masdevallias stable humidity is the key, not constant watering. Will grow in a pot or on a mount. Appreciates air movement. Will tolerate warm temperatures rather well. Altogether this is a rather easy species to grow.
Comments: Parent plant: Fairly representative of this species as a whole. Floriferous species. Miniature.
