Pairs well with
Masdevallia Kimballiana 'Yellow Doll' × urosalpinx is a cross of the awarded Kimballiana clone 'Yellow Doll' (M. caudata × M. veitchiana, Sanders 1893) with M. urosalpinx, a synonym of M. constricta.
About this plant
- Flower spikes: Single blooms carried on erect spikes clear of the foliage.
- Flowers: White to cream, with soft yellow shading through the dorsal sepal and tails, and a small red column at the centre.
- Plant: Compact Masdevallia growth habit, suited to cool-growing collections.
Growing conditions
- Temperature: Cool to intermediate, 5°C to 22°C. It needs cool nights and is not suited to warm climates. Avoid sustained heat, as this is the primary cause of failure with Masdevallia.
- Light: Bright filtered light. No direct midday sun.
- Water: Keep evenly moist at all times. With no pseudobulbs there are no water reserves, so do not allow it to dry out.
- Humidity & air: Humidity of 60% or higher, with constant gentle air movement. Rainwater or RO water preferred.
