Hello Cardamine,I love your photos, so nice to see cypripediums in their natural habitats. I grow all the ones you are showing, but they are in pots and look like nothing compared to your images.
And let us not ignore the conservation benefits, which arise from growing seed-raised orchids. The more there are and the easier they are to obtain, the less pressure there will be on wild populations of these delightful plants. In nature, they suffer from habitat destruction by the advances of loggers and property developers as well as the indiscriminate pilferage of commercial collectors. So let's grow lots of them to ensure their conservation.
