Default Dracula lotax

Ok, so I currently have this one in bloom again. Sometimes it puts one multiple spikes, but recently it has been throwing one here and one there. This means it's in bloom often.

These can grow more intermediate than other draculas? I really want a dracula, but my temps are too high.

I really like the picture. I want a Dracula so bad; maybe for an Anniversary or a Christmas present. I will need to start dropping hints.

Also what I like is that the spikes grow above the foliage rather than below. Though I would not pass up the opportunity to grow a really large flowered Drac.

Cool logs might be that opportunity?

I also would love to grow one but it might not resist summer here.
Tindomul, that's a beautiful plant you have.

Thanks, it's in my terrarium but I keep the room that it's in quite cool.
