I have 2 Dracula, an anthracina and a soennemarkii. Both have been outside since I was sure they wouldn't take a frost. My humidity varies from the mid 20s% to 100%, averaging around 50%. Temps have gotten as low as 40F and as high as the low 90sF. Being outside there is a reliable temperature drop at night. I use rain water or ro with a small amount of fertilizer at each watering. Since being put out, the anthracina has put on one new growth, started another and is just beginning a spike. I suspect this spike will blast. The soennemarkii has put on multiple new growths, started many more, but has shown no signs of flowering. My hope is to be able to get the plants through summer without setting them back and getting them to flower over the winter. My winter space is reliably cool and humidity is easy to achieve indoors.
