That is fantastic. Great job!! Thumbs up

It may seem silly for me to advise you on how to grow Dracula's tommy since you have bloomed one but, make sure you keep your humidity levels up once they spike. The spikes have a tendency to abort if the humidity goes too low.
Along with that notion, keep your watering schedule tight and you might produce more blooms that open. However it is still a great job on your part.
Lotax is known for being a red spotted white flower with red tipped caudae or tails. They possess that cute little 🐵 monkey face inside the flower. I love it.
