Masdevallia de formis. This lovely species hails from high cloud forests in Ecuador
and was grown by Marni Turkel of Santa Rosa, California. The flowers are pendent
and therefore the plants are best grown mounted or in baskets. It grows cool
and does not tolerate exposure to temperatures above 24°C (75°F).
