Masdevallia yungasensis
Masd. yungasensis is a cool-growing species prized for its elegant floral form and compact habit. It thrives in the misty, cloud forest conditions of its native habitat and rewards attentive growers with charming, successive blooms.
- Light: Grow under 50–70% shade cloth; direct sun causes rapid damage to its fine foliage and must be avoided.
- Temperature: Cool grower. Daytime 55–65°F (13–18°C), nights 45–54°F (7–12°C). Consistent cool temperatures are essential; avoid prolonged warmth above 68°F (20°C).
- Humidity: Requires 75–90% relative humidity; its fine root system benefits greatly from a humidifier with steady air movement to prevent desiccation.
- Watering: Keep evenly and consistently moist; best grown mounted or in a small pot with fine bark to allow the roots to dry slightly between waterings, with more frequent misting during warmer months.
Additional Notes
Grown at Ecuagenera in the highlands of Ecuador under cool mountain conditions. Plants are shipped bare root, well-established, and ready to mount or pot in fine bark or sphagnum moss.
