    With just a quick look, I wouldn't have guess it was a dresslerella. Do the flowers open much more than they are here?

    Marni, the flower on this species is very much like Zootrophion with small opening.

    I like this one too! This one looks much less hairy than D. pilosissima

    There are too groups in this genus, one with long hair and one with short hair. They have names for those groups but I can't remember now. I like the growth habit of this one too.
