Masdevallia immensa

An impressive species from the cloud forests of South America, presenting compact, tufted growth with erect, thick, coriaceous leaves. The single-flowered inflorescences produce unusually large, striking blossoms adorned with elongated sepaline tails that create a captivating, geometric display. Light: Medium to bright indirect light with 50–60% shade; safeguard the delicate foliage from direct solar exposure. Temperature: 50–73°F (10–23°C); thrives under cool conditions and benefits from a noticeable drop in night temperatures. Humidity: 75–90%; demands high, constant moisture paired with constant air movement to ensure healthy development. Watering: Water regularly to keep the potting medium consistently damp; never allow the fine root system to dry out completely. Additional Notes This miniature-statured plant produces a remarkably large flower relative to its foliage size, making it a highly rewarding specimen. Ships bare root, well established, and should be gently rehydrated at an intermediate temperature before potting into a fine-grade bark or premium sphagnum moss mix upon arrival.
