Masdevallia Night Shade

A bold hybrid between Masd. Angel Frost and Masd. datura, producing large, wide-open flowers with a broad, flat sepal cup and a vivid orange-gold central blotch. The exceptionally long dorsal cauda rises steeply above the bloom while two shorter lateral caudas extend downward, creating a dramatic, three-pointed silhouette that stands well above the compact, lush foliage.

• Light: 50–70% shade cloth; bright, diffused light. Avoid any direct sun exposure.
• Temperature: 45–68°F (7–20°C); Cool to Intermediate grower. Consistent cool nights are essential for healthy growth and blooming.
• Humidity: 70–90%. Requires high humidity at all times; excellent air movement is critical to prevent fungal issues.
• Watering: Keep evenly moist; never allow the roots to dry out completely. Water frequently with good drainage to avoid stagnation.
