Masdevallia Minaret 'Lollipop'
This one is very similar to the Reggae I posted earlier this year. It's a nice flower and has two this year. Hopefully with some better culture next winter there will be a better outcome.

Nice healthy looking plant,so your culture seems ok, don't try and push these Masdevallias with extra feeding as this will cause leaf tip burning etc let it be its self.  |

I hardly feed it at all. I think I have about 60 of them and very light feeding if at all.
Plant is healthy but some marks from the excessive cold we had this year.

Very nice. Is the flower supposed to open more, or is it a more tubular morph?

Love it. Almost bought one last year but after my other one took a hike, south, I backed off. Too hot here. 
Great growing. Enjoy. |

No, this is how much it opens, I guess more tubular than flat and open.
Thanks for the kind words everyone!

I love it, it's so colorful! I love masdie's but don't know if they will grow in my conditions. If I can it to rebloom next week, then I'm getting more masdies, and this one is on the list.
