Masdevallia Gremlin

[shakkai]

After about a week of being green, this flower has finally started to colour up. The cross is angulata x strobelii, and this one has inherited the 'floating' hinged lip from angulata. Not drop dead gorgeous, but the blue/purple hairs at the front and the white hairs/glands at the back make it a pretty cool flower.



I'll see if I can get a better photo when there is more light, so that I can get a closeup.

It's pretty cool! I love the contrasting hairs! That really makes a lot of Masdies stand out!

The colored hairs make for a nice contrast. I think it's a cutie (I'm addicted to Masdevallias almost as bad as I am to slippers).

I REALLY like this one, Shannan. You know me, the weirder the better.

I REALLY like this one, Shannan. You know me, the more weird the better.

And me, Tracy! Weird is good!! I really like the colouring - and I am a sucker for the orchids with the 'floaty' lips. So much fun to play with!

Thanks for looking everyone!
