Care of your Dracula Inaequalis

Light Dracula orchids prefer low to medium light levels and should be kept out of direct sunlight. In darker winters, you may need to supplement with artificial light until mid-March. 
Temperature Dracula orchids prefer cool to chilly temperatures, especially at night. Daytime temperatures should be between 70°F (21°C) to 80°F (27°C), and nighttime temperatures should not fall below 50°F (10°C). 
Humidity Dracula orchids need high humidity, ideally at least 70% relative humidity during the day and higher at night. You can increase humidity by placing the pot in a tray of water or by growing the plant in a place where moss and ferns grow well. 
Water Dracula orchids need consistent moisture and should not be allowed to dry out. Water regularly, checking the moisture levels daily. In the summer, you may need to water up to a few times a week, and in the winter, you may only need to water once a week. 
Soil Use a moisture-retaining potting medium, such as sphagnum moss, orchid bark, small pine or fern bark, and perlite. 
Fertilizer Feed every couple of weeks with a dilute balanced fertilizer. 
Repotting Dracula orchids can be sensitive to repotting, so it's best to let them get big before repotting. 
Hanging Many Dracula species grow best as hanging plants in a basket.
