Default Dracula vlad-tepes
An unusual one i picked up out in California. Cant find any web based info on it at all. I was told it is a species.
But regardless I really like this one. Its very fuzzy, nice shape, and i think the coloration is very striking.

Such a great genus! I wish I could help you with the care of this species, but I've never grown it.

It's a species for sure.

Grow cool to intermediate (50 F - 85 F) in shade.

Keep evenly moist.

High humidity for good flowering (60% and up).

In general Dracula spp. grow in moist mid to high elevation cloud forests on moss covered trees. They can be found growing alongside Masdevallia spp.
