    A first bloom for it and me. A prize from Laneside Orchids annual draw last autumn 15.05.30 Cypripedium Francis.JPG . Growing in a 90% perlite 10% loam mix. Wintered in my cold green house on the dry side but never completely dry. Summer in the garden in partial shade. Fed weekly in the growing season. I need to tweak something in my culture as my Cypripedium are coming through the winter OK, but I am not seeing an increase in the number of growths year on year. Any suggestions welcome.
