No Ian just to take the photos.

They grow outside in the shade on the north side of my bungalow. During the winter I keep the wet off them with cold frames. If it gets really cold they go in my garage to protect the roots. They stayed out all through last winter.

A "wrong" alba, I don't know, what it is. Last year one flower,  now 4.

a few more pot grown plants

Hi,

three more now fully out.
First up is a mature 'normal' form of Sabine.
Next up is a true alba Sabine with much more of a macranthos shape to the lip.
This seedling is flowering for the first time and shows some serious potential.
I love it.
The cross was made with a macranthos alba originating from a region round Vladivostock where a
particularly tall and vigorous form grows.
I suspect it has a few x ventricosum genes in it somewhere.
Last we have a nice deep coloured macranthos seedling made using the well known 'red' form from baikal.
The actual flower is a better colour than that shown in the photo,

Regards,

David

Hi
I have bought this Cypripedium as machrantos 'White'. But it's not. Can anyone put a hybrid name to it.
I would appreciate your help.

Nice Cyps everyone,

Erling your Cyp has classic kentuckiensis colouring with petals and sepals of greenish striped and mottled with purple while the very large lip, or pouch, is a creamy ivory or pale yellow. If its a hybrid it sure does have kentuckiensis in the cross.

Your flower has a little more opening to go, if it developes twisted long sepals its sure to be kentuckiensis.

cheers
