Masdevallia princeps bloom
I got this Masd. princeps at an orchid show from Ecuagenera in March. It's kicking butt and just recently bloomed! Here's a pic. (sorry my camera doesn't take the best pics)

I have no idea what I did right! I repotted it right when I got it home in an organic orchid mix that seems to hold moisture a little better. Also, the house I was living in at the time (when it started to grow like crazy) was a little damp and musty. I wonder if that had anything to do with it? Anyhow, the bloom just finished and I am not waiting on the next one  Good luck with yours! |
