Masdevallia Pichincha 'Capeviem'

A complex hybrid between Masd. Copper Angel and Masd. calocodon, producing multiple flowers simultaneously on long, arching ramicauls. Each bloom features broad sepals with bold, parallel venation tapering into exceptionally long, thread-like tails — giving the plant a dramatic, spider-like presence in full bloom.

• Light: 70–80% shade cloth; bright indirect light. Avoid direct sun, which scorches the thin leaves.
• Temperature: 50–65°F (10–18°C) — Cool grower. A consistent day-to-night temperature drop helps trigger blooming; avoid prolonged exposure above 70°F (21°C).
• Humidity: 80–90%. Maintain strong air circulation to prevent fungal rot at the crown and roots.
• Watering: 2–3 times per week; keep roots evenly moist at all times. No pseudobulbs — cannot tolerate drying out. Use soft, low-mineral water when possible.
