I do have some orchids in the garden - many nice Cypripediums and this is one of them - it has been grown outside form more than 15 years and it is surely nice. Covered it with glass during winters in some years but the last 3 it has been standing without any protection. It is planted in nearly only lime and some ordinary soil - has some shadow from a Helleborus but direct sun - this year it started grwoing in may and started flowering for a week ago - 4 nice flowers - I use some of them for pollination with Cyp regina - but as I understood it is not always easy to raise them from seeds. Lets say other Cyps are easier. Anyway one of my nice one.:wink:
