Masdevallia Angel Heart 'Cupids Bow' is a named clonal selection of this primary hybrid (M. ignea × M. infracta), originated by J & L Orchids in 1991. Angel Heart combines the fire-red intensity of ignea with the smaller, richly coloured form of infracta.
What to expect
- Flowering: Single blooms carried on erect spikes clear of the foliage.
- Flowers: Rich red tones with good substance, typical of the Angel Heart grex.
- Plant: Compact Masdevallia growth habit, suited to cool-growing collections.
Growing notes
- Temperature: Cool to intermediate. Avoid sustained heat — this is the primary cause of failure with Masdevallia.
- Light: Bright filtered shade. No direct midday sun.
- Water: Keep evenly moist at all times. No pseudobulbs means no water reserves — do not allow to dry out.
- Humidity & air: High humidity with constant gentle air movement. Rainwater or RO water preferred.
