Masdevallia veitchiana - two color forms
Photographed at Ecuagenera's main (cooler-growing) nursery in Gualaceo, Ecuador (near Cuenca).
I nearly gave myself whiplash looking at the second one.

Wow, both gorgeous. Stunning. Great pictures.
This is one of my favourite masdie species, also the only one I've (so far) got to rebloom so maybe that makes me biased.

What a set of beauties!!! I wish I could grow these. Also wish I was a hummingbird so as to have an excuse for salivating at those flowers.
