Description

Masdevallia minuta

Name: Masdevallia minuta Lindl.

Synonyms: Acinopetala minuta (Lindl.) Luer; Masdevallia surinamensis Focke

Etymology: The genus name Masdevallia honors José Masdevall; the Latin minuta means “small” and refers to its compact growth.

Origin/Distribution: Widespread in tropical South America, from Venezuela and the Guianas through Colombia and Ecuador to Peru and Bolivia.

Habitat: Epiphytic or terrestrial in moss-rich, humid forests at low to mid elevations. Cool to intermediate temperatures of around 14–24 °C, shady to partially shaded conditions, high humidity, and gentle air movement.

Description and Notes: A small-growing Masdevallia that is well suited to humid display cases. We recommend a fine, airy, moisture-retentive medium and soft water. Keep the roots evenly moist, but avoid waterlogging.
