Etymology:

roezlii = Benedict Roezl, 1823 - 1884, was an imperial-royal Austrian-Bohemian botanist and orchid collector. He prepared over 100,000 herbarium specimens and introduced almost 800 new orchid species into cultivation.

Origin:Colombia

Location:

In the Antioquia District, epiphytic in cloud forests on mossy trees at altitudes of 1800 to 2350m.

Notes:

Dracula roezlii produces very striking flowers, up to 10cm in size, usually on several pendulous inflorescences. The dark flower with the very pale, almost white lip creates a very striking, attractive contrast.
The selected clone Dracula roezlii 'San Francisco' impresses with its large, very intensely colored flowers with clear patterning.
