Default Dracula hirtzii
Picked up this one at the Ottawa show a few weeks ago. All the buds and flowers on it at the show dropped off, but as you can see it didn't hesitate to grow new ones! It's even got a few new spikes starting.

This species lives in Ecuador and Columbia. Like many draculas, it's a sequential bloomer and like all dracs, it needs really high humidity.

Great flower, I love the colouring.

It seems to want to face the ground though
