Masdevallia princeps "Golden Gate" x Ebony
Hi all,
So I got this Masdevallia princeps "Golden Gate" x Ebony in September from Golden Gate Orchids. This is actually it's second round of flowers. It has two more buds in three spikes all together. It last bloomed in September and I didn't have to wait long for the next sequence of blooms. Fortunately this plant is a sequential bloomer. 
The plant came in flower and in bud, but I managed not only to not blast the buds or the spikes, but to get it to bloom again! I'm happy!

It's 20 cm long and 3 cm wide. It's very big for a Masdie I think.
