Hi everyone,
Just had my masdevallia flower after replacing my t5's. They were getting quite dim so it was time for a change - the flowers didn't colour up the best and also the newest one was squished against the front glass.
I have the tag around here somewhere but I can't remember off the top of my head exactly what it is!
Still, I hope everyone enjoys. The flower at the bottom opened a few weeks back and has turned slightly yellow with age. Also there is a spider hiding somewhere that keeps making webs - it looked really beautiful after fogging and the moisture began to condense on the strands.
If anyone is curious, it is growing directly on a cork log. When I bought it, I just de-potted and sat it there, with a little moss to stabilise. Not tied or wrapped or anything. It is very happy, but I wouldn't recommend this if you can't provide the humidity they need
All the moss died because I fertilized a little (I knew it would)... it's slowly but surely growing back though.
And this was the little guy when he first went in:
