This distinct-looking orchid has thin and long leaves with small, dark flowers in deep red, making it look like it is made of dried blood. It gives an impression of a monkey’s face. It belongs to the Dracula genus, which means ‘little dragon.’ This species resembles a hooded vampire, hence the name Dracula Vampira.
Dracula vampira functions pretty much like vampires. It does not like to dry out, does not enjoy too much light, and grows well in cooler temperatures. This is the reason why it is called the Dracula vampira.
