Default Ailing Masdevallia - any hope of recovery?

Ditto what Eric says. If you are in San Fran, or actually just about
anywhere in the Bay Area now that winter's here. Put it outside, out of
direct sun. Just keep it moist for right now. Don't fertilize it till it
perks up. Tell us the general area where you live and we can go from there.

Ben,

Where do you live? Where do you keep the plant? Those are important
questions with answers that will determine the best advice for recovering
the plant.

If you live in the City (SF) - PUT THE PLANT OUTSIDE asap, with no direct
sun. Masdevallias don't like growing indoors for the most part. Outside in
San Francisco is one of their preferred environments.

Awaiting more info...
