I grow mine in clay pellets. They get fed DynaGrow. Its under lights near the floor to stay cool.

Congratulations!
I haven't been successful with Masdevillia so far - then one I had unluckily didn't survive.

Beautiful bloom. I have two I bought in bloom about a year and a half ago. I have growth, but no bloom. I'm keeping mine down in the daylight basement on a windowsill. It wasn't doing anything on the main floor.
Don't know what's going to come of it here at my end, but I do love your bloom! Thanks for sharing!

That is SO interesting!
What a big DUH for me!!!

Floor space might be the answer to some of my temperature "issues"

Thanks
Love the Masdie too
