Hi
I have recently developed a fascination for cypripediums and wanted to share my first success with you here. I have found so many of the posts here very helpful and I am grateful for all the information you all share. I have loads to learn and I look forward to sharing my successes and failures with you all.
In Wales we have just experienced the wettest and mildest winter on record with one nearby village experiencing rain for 90 days straight.
Some of my plants are in pots and some in a prepared woodland edge garden. I had thought all of the plants in the ground would be lost; however only 2 of 20 plants have yet to show. It has been a cold late spring but fingers crossed these will do okay and continue to make growth.
The plants in the pots have done okay and they were kept drier through the winter.
The photo I have hopefully attached shows my first flower bud of Sabine. I will post a picture of it in its full glory when it hopefully gets there.
Best wishes,
Roy
