Those are awesome. If I wasn't an Anglican I would probably be a Masdevalliaeist or...a Pleurothalidian. Alas, too warm here I think. Very nice!

Outstanding growing! All the plant you posted recently have been so beautiful!
What medium do you prefer for masdies?

Thank you
Olya

So very pretty, all of them. I'm testing the waters with one of the warmth tolerant species. Happy growing.

Sheila :)

MrB a Masdevalliaiest sounds sinister and I picture an Anglican with a halo :>)

Olya I use clay pots with p'nuts in the bottom and sphag/tree fern mix. My biggest mistake last year was over fertilizing them and getting burnt tips on the foliage. Weakly weekly was too much so now I do 1/4 monthly and no burnt tips.

Sheila I hope you are successful - they bloom for a long time and they don't take up much room!
