The scientific name of these Monkey Orchids is 'Dracula Simia'. Dracula, literally means ‘little dragon’ referring to the strange aspect of the two long spurs of the two long sepals. Simia is a nod towards the fact that this remarkable orchid bears more than a passing resemblance to a monkey’s face.

Weird but interesting...lol...Thanks for sharing
