Hi Mariana,

I have one but can't find a picture at the moment. If I recall, it's on the
dark side, not light pink as some of the photos show.

I know that not everyone grows Draculas, but I was kind of hopefull that
someone here would know what's going on and what the Drac should look
like.
Is it possible that amongst the members here I'm the only one that grows
this orchid? Eric have you seen this one, photographed it by any chance?

A very disappointed,
Mariana

I have a Dracula erythrochaete with 11 spikes (I think one blasted
earlier
today, it's yellowing). I have a slight dilema. Here are a few links
to
the photo of the orchid. As you can see each photo is quite different.
I'm
a bit confused as to how that's possible. I'm trying to figure out what
it
should look like. Some of these pages claim that it's a native to Costa
Rica, mine says that it's from Colombia!

I'm dying of curiousity and my Dracula is taking it's sweet time opening
up.
Meanwhile, will the real Dracula erythrochaete stand up?
