So nice! Those O. italica blooms are insane, simply insane. As exotic looking as any orchid from anywhere! The vernixia are great, definitely getting there. But you know where we need to go :evil:
 
  • #69
Agreed. I just wish it were prone to division.......
 
  • #70
Both of my Ophrys only made singles this year.
 
  • #71
None of mine ever grow additional tubers.

Cypripedium fargesii - Bloom should be open in a couple more days.

Whoa - if that doesn't look like Audrey II! 'Waiting to see it completely opened.
 
  • #77
That's actually just about fully opened, Mark. It's an odd, ground hugging species with flowers that seem to only partially open.
 
  • #78
What an interesting, weird plant. Would you happen to know the hardiness zone?
 
  • #79
C.fargesii is only hardy down to 32 degrees or so. It's considered by many growers to be "semi hardy".

A little to warm for me to grow outside. Thanks.
