Masdevallia Machu Picchu is a cross of ayabacana x coccinea, and this hybrid is spectacular in various color forms. It's a cool grower, but not particularly difficult if you can handle that part.
Masd. veitchiana was (is?) the masdevallia found among the ruins at Machu Picchu, and of course it's amazing in it's own way.

Sorry can't answer that question.
I don't grow any Masde's. One day I will try a warmer grower.
Thanks to Phantasm for the info.
