Masdevallia minuta

Product image 1

Masdevallia minuta

A true miniature epiphyte native to the cloud forests of South America, producing masses of tiny star-shaped flowers on very short scapes in a dense basal habit. The open, trilobulate blooms feature three separate, triangular sepals with short pointed tips — their collective display far more impactful than any individual flower.

  • Light: 70–80% shade cloth; avoid direct midday sun. Bright, diffused light encourages the prolific blooming this species is known for.
  • Temperature: 55–72°F (13–22°C) — Intermediate to Cool grower. Nighttime temperature drops help sustain blooming cycles. Avoid prolonged exposure above 75°F (24°C).
  • Humidity: 80–90%; always pair with strong air movement to prevent rot and fungal issues.
  • Watering: Water thoroughly and frequently, never allowing the medium to fully dry out. Use soft, low-mineral water (RO or rainwater preferred).

Additional Notes

Ideal for terrariums, windowsills, or any cool, humid setup. Best grown in a fine sphagnum moss mix in a small net or plastic pot with excellent drainage. Ships bare root and well-established, with a healthy root system ready to settle into its new home.
