    Cyp. Philipp

    Very nice and it looks well established. I have read here and in other places to fertilize sparingly so I have added a small scattering of 3 to 4 month osmocoate when the plants broke surface. As name suggests these release a small amount of food over 3 to 4 months. I have also foliar fed with a...

    Very happy with this plant and I was surprised to see two flowers on one stem. All of the info I have read says one per stem.

    Formosanum 2016

    That's amazing love that that swirl in the leaf. I bought one last autumn but it didn't produce a shoot. Discovered it isn't dead today so I will keep fingers crossed for next year.

It seems part of the fun trying to work out what you have especially with the hybrids. Some here say only 80% of there plants arive...

    First cypripedium bud

    Hi Dave, I know you are right about growing mainly hybrids and have already lost a few of the species, However, I don't think I can resist them all together yet, a few more hits to the wallet and I will wise up a bit I am sure. Sorry to here about the losses and I am glad your getting back...
