Hi, one of these plants I have posted before but it won a couple of sashes so here goes, this is the best I've ever done at a show so I'm pretty happy this week:

Masdevallia Bob Hoffman
Champion Hybrid of the Show
Champion Masdevallia of the Show





Masdevallia Rein Sun

Reserve Champion Masdevallia of the show








Masdevallia Pichincha 'Cape View'

This didn't win anything but has 26 flowers this year. Next time I will stake it when the spikes are developing so they all hold themselves above the flowers......
