Thanks Tindo & Tommy,
This orchid now has about 7 flowers open and more buds coming all the time. Since the photos above were taken it's not stopped flowering and has just got more and more flowers all the time.

Beautiful! Love the striations too and shades of rose. I'm sooo jealous. Mine is just doing leaves. Hope you can post another photo of the plant with all those blooms. I've got to move mine (plus water emitters) to the north side of the fence...now that it's in sphagnum and clay...then show it a picture of yours. LOL.

I'll try and get another picture, I've not taken any of my orchids for a while so there are quite a few I could do with getting before the flowers fade  |

Thanks Belero,
I think I'm lucky with my conditions for Masdevallias. This is not that big a plant but having had a couple of flowers only per year for the first couple of years this year it seems to not want to stop flowering. My veitchianna did the same thing a few years back and is almost always flowering now so I hope this is going to carry on doing the same thing as well  |

This isn't a good picture, just an in-situ greenhouse shot, but just wanted to show all those flowers. I was wrong earlier when I thought it had about 7 flowers... it has 12 and a couple of buds
