This is one of my favorite Masdevallia. For some reason I love things upside down!

We could learn a lot from crayons: some are sharp, some are pretty, some are dull, some have weird names, and all are different colors....but they all exist very nicely in the same box. ...Hmmm? .

Filter sunlight. Winter temperature goes down to the mid 40F. Summer temperature can go up to mid 80F. Must water with really good water, like rain or RO water. I’ve never fertilized my plants.

Nice, I got a question for you. How do you collect your rain water and how do you keep it in good shape? Also, where do you get your RO water?

I actually water it with RO water. You can actually buy RO water system really cheap now online. Just buy a large plastic trash can and collect the water that way. I actually have a saltwater fish tank. I do use RO water for the fish tank too.
