We went further up and there we found (Saul found!) Masdevallia uniflora!  It was the flower which I wanted to see most.  I had been told that there were flowers in the nursery in Palca but they were not sure if I could see the flowers in their natural habitats, so I was extremely pleased. 

It was windy there, so the flowers were continuously moving and I could not take a nice photograph, which is a pity.  (At the centre of this photograph was the flower.  Can you see it?)

Masdevallia uniflora is the species that Spanish botanists, Ruiz and Pavón found here in Huasahuasi for the first time 200 years ago.  This fact made me more pleased and thrilled.
