Cypripedium ventricosum Pastel Eurasia The garden was kind enough

The garden was kind enough to share spores which subsequently reproduced plants virtually identical to the parent

They will thrive with full sun all day long yet still bloom most satisfactorily with fewer hours provided they have at least 6 hours of full sun

The flowers are topped with 6 standard petals

This is one of the best of the recent hosta introductions and one that seems to be finding its way into most home gardens

They should yield a percentage of double-flowered seedlings
