Default Miniature Masdevallia
A small growing Masdevallia with small flowers, now classified as Acinopetala minuta. The second photo is of a single flower.

If this is the same as Masdevallia minuta, I am quite jealous! I've had mine for a few years, and have never gotten it to bloom. Any tricks on yours?

It is the same as Masdevallia minuta - just been renamed - and I give it no special treatment. It grows with the other Masdevallias with good humidity, as cool temps as I can give it and what is probably not very good light (I've thought about changing from flourescents to better lighting on the basis of discussions on this board, but if it works why fix it?)
