A natural hybrid between
Cypripedium guttatum and C. yatabeanum. This most northern lady's slipper has an
attractive pitcher-shaped pouch, white with purple spotting, prized by
collectors. This is an easy one to grow and spreads quickly but requires a
longer cold period (minimum 5 months under 4 C or 39 F).
