Masdevallia Peppermint Rock

A hybrid between Masd. Minaret and Masd. caudata, combining a dense, creeping growth habit with prolific, simultaneously-blooming flowers. Each globose bloom features inflated sepals with bold, parallel striping and slender, curved tails — a striking visual effect that earns this hybrid its evocative name.

• Light: 60–70% shade cloth; bright indirect light. Avoid direct sun, which scorches the small leaves.
• Temperature: 55–70°F (13–21°C) — Intermediate grower. Tolerates mild fluctuations; avoid prolonged heat above 75°F (24°C).
• Humidity: 80–90%. Maintain strong air circulation to prevent fungal issues 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.

Additional Notes
