Mystery Masdevallia in bloom--

[Timotheus]

I bought this orchid, a Masdevallia last year–It has just begun to bloom–I was completely perplexed--It was supposed to be Masdevallia tovarensis, a white flowered species–I contacted the grower and he thought it might be an accidental hybrid–Possibly crossed with Masdevallia Bella Donna--So...a mystery--I do think it’s beautiful either way–I just wanted to share the photos--

The colours are gorgeous.

Thanks it is my first Masdevallia to bloom--I only have three--the other two are a Hirtzii and a Herradurae--Actually I did have one bloom on that last one last spring--

Great growing...very pretty bloom! I also have several growing with the restrepias which I bet you'd also enjoy growing.

Thanks guys--I am happy with it despite it being different than what I expected--DeaC I think I would like to try restrepias in the future--I have seen photos of some reatlly cool species, especially those with striped blooms--very similiar to striped beetles, I think--
