You want a reward of a very special kind? Here we have something absolutely unique for you:

By naming an orchid species after yourself or a loved one, you immortalise yourself or someone else of your choice in the biology books and create a very personal connection between you and the natural treasures at our project site!

By doing so, you will not only help our project, but also support our project partner Ecominga, who have newly discovered these orchid species in the Dracula Reserve, in their research and the scientific publication of the new orchid species! Newly discovered species are very important arguments for the protection of their habitat. The more species that are discovered, the greater the evidence that an area is in need of protection.

Our team and Ecominga thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your generous support!
