Masdevallia Southern Comfort 'Mini Tiger' is a selected clone of the Southern Comfort grex, an Australian-bred Masdevallia hybrid known for its compact size and strongly patterned flowers. 'Mini Tiger' is named for its bold tiger-stripe effect — warm golden-orange tones overlaid with vivid red to magenta striping across the full face of the flower. The rounded lower sepals and strong central colour pattern give this clone excellent visual impact despite its small overall flower size.
What to expect
- Flowering: Single flowers on upright spikes. Can flower more than once a year under stable conditions.
- Flowers: Golden-orange ground with vivid red to magenta striping. Bold, high-contrast patterning consistent across this named clone. Colour intensity may vary slightly with light and temperature.
- Plant: Compact miniature habit. A neat grower suited to collections where space is limited.
Growing notes
- Temperature: Cool-growing. Performs best with cool nights and stable conditions through summer. Avoid sustained warmth.
- Light: Bright filtered shade. No direct midday sun.
- Water: Keep evenly moist at all times. No pseudobulbs — do not allow to dry out.
- Humidity & air: High humidity with constant gentle air movement. Rainwater or RO water preferred.
