Dracula chimaera update

It turns out that all the new growth problems(pleated leaves) with my draculas came from low humidity. Here is my attempt to increase humidity around Dracula chimaera:



I know saran wrap at the top looks weird, but it is temporary until I fashion something more elegant.
Now I need to find suitable glass container for Dracula simia which is twice taller.

Also knowledgeable folks from Orchidboard suggested to pot draculas into net pots since they send spikes down and to the sides, so I also moved my dracs from clay to net pots.
I hope all these manipulations are for good.
