Masdevallia persicina

A delicate miniature species from Andean cloud forests with a compact rosette habit. The globose floral cup features three exceptionally long, thread-like tails — one projecting upward and two downward — creating a graceful, almost weightless silhouette.

• Light: 70–80% shade cloth; bright indirect light. Avoid direct sun, which scorches the small leaves.
• Temperature: 52–68°F (11–20°C) — Intermediate to cool grower. A consistent day-to-night temperature drop helps trigger blooming; avoid prolonged exposure above 72°F (22°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.
