Default Masdevallia Marek?
This plant showed up on our show table at this month's meeting. I can't find any information on it!

Can anyone help me out please?

What you have there is Masdevallia murex. Well bloomed

Did you smell it?

Yep, that is Byrsella murex... it smells kinda fishy, I guess would be the closest match. Some of the Byrsella (Masdevallia; Section Coriaceae) species smell similarly unpleasant.

PS: Sue, this species is harder to grow, but try other Byrsella species, like Byrsella peristeria or even Byrsella fractifelxa...
