Not a flashy Masdevallia but still worth gowing in my oppinion! Flower is almost pure white with little to no speckling. It is a vigourous grower and seems to be very warmth tolerant.

Wow, very nice! You are right about being vigorous and warmth tolerant. However, I Have to say, I'm surprised by the color. I have this guy and he is quite maroon in color.

That's a cute little masdie! I didn't know they could be so white. And a vigorous grower? Sounds like something I want!

Scott, I just have to ask ... are you sure on the ID of that?
Wow didn't know they're was a white Floribunda, very nice for sure
My floribunda is supposed to be the yellow/golden blooms - It's in bud now, so we'll see.

Love the white one though!

That was my thought too, Gloria. Floribunda is generally golden, but the var. tuerkeimi is actually maroon.
