Tom,

Yup, it is. BUT - the flower is a little less than an inch across, about 2
inches counting the tails. BUT BUT - a well grown plant can be covered in
flowers.

It is a cool grower and will drop leaves if the nightime temp is too high.

There are more and more warmth tolerant Masdevallias out there - you'll have
fun growing them!

Great series, Eric. Is the M. glandulosa as nubbly as it looks? I have to
learn how to grow Masdevallias.

Thanks for the response. I'm fine during the cool months, and at night most
any time of year, but Summer afternoon and evening temps in my GH can at
times get up to 90š F. Does that preclude Masdevallias?
