Masdevallia floribunda
About 1 1/2 years ago I almost lost this one mounted in a terrarium to mealy bug, during my great mealy bug war of 2007/08.
I cleaned it off, put it in some sphagnum, only had a few leaves left, and put it with the rest of my masdies. Now for the first time ever, it has given me multiple blooms living up to its name sake.
7 flowers total. A personal best.
I am having a really good Masdie year.
