Dracula felix
A species from the Andean cloud forests best known for its pendant flowers whose lip strikingly resembles a tiny monkey face. Its inflorescences emerge from the base and hang downward, requiring a basket or open-sided mount to bloom freely.
- Light: Bright indirect light with 50–70% shade cloth; avoid direct sun, which can stress the thin, delicate leaves.
- Temperature: 50–65°F (10–18°C); a cool to cold grower that requires consistent nighttime drops — minimum 45°F (7°C) tolerated briefly.
- Humidity: 80–95%; mist frequently or use a humidity tray, and ensure strong air circulation to prevent rot.
- Watering: Water thoroughly and frequently, never allowing the roots to dry out completely; avoid waterlogging by using a very open, fast-draining mix.
Additional Notes
Best grown in a hanging basket with a coarse mix of bark, perlite, and sphagnum to accommodate its pendant blooms. Plant is well-established and shipped bare root. Suited for experienced cool-grower enthusiasts.
