Masdevallia herradurae with 9 spikes in Miami
 
This guy proves that some Masdies can be grown with great success even in Miami. It is mounted on the top of my hygrolon cylinder, and since October this is the second blooming already, first time 4 spikes, now 9 spikes. SO HAPPY!!!:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl: Enjoy!

I just want to say, Tommy, you're doing some really cool stuff with minis & you clearly have a wonderful knack for it.
Good growing & keep posting.

Many thanks, I must say I am extremely happy that minis love me so much, most of them are doing really great, and I fulfill at least one of the orchid dreams - to bloom at least SOME Masdevallias in Miami! So far I did bloom both, herradurae and erinacea, so I hope new ones will do bloom too! Now anxiously waiting for telipogoniflora that is growing the spike, that mini is my blooming dream too! Let's hope it will push it to the end and open!

In San Francisco, nights of 71 is considered a hot spell
