Cypripedium 'Kristi Lyn'
Cypripedium pubescens x C. henryi
Are you looking for CYPRIPEDIUM PUBESCENS? This is the next best thing, possibly even better. "Better than pubescens," you say "how?" Well, it is a very vigorous and lovely hybrid with a large yellow pouch and beautiful light-brown hood and tendrils. It is indistiguishable from Cypripedium pubescens to the untrained and most trained eyes, and, the best part, with henryi as a parent, there is always a possibility that mature plants could have two flowers per stalk. In fact, we saw one in our stock last year!
Zones 3-6. 16-20 in. Light shade, cool moist rich well-drained soil.
We are offering 2 sizes:
- XXL Blooming-sized multi-stemmed plants with at least 2-3 blooming stems and well-developed root system
- XL Blooming-sized multi-stemmed plants with at least 1 large blooming-sized stem and well-developed root system.
