Hi Hans,
we bought it as Fargesii a few years ago but have just had the first flower and assumed it was correctly named.
Just googled images and yes it would appear we have Micranthum or 'purple baby bird' .
Thanks for the info.

And the last Cyps for today.
I know fargesii, candidum?, ventricosum, lichiangense, shanxiense?

Hans I have tried to compare with the pics on Frosch website and I think the shanxiense might be a hybrid with calceolus since the petals are darker brown.
The link is here:
http://www.w-frosch.de/Cypris/Hybriden/calsha.htm
Regarding the white I do not know how to separate the candidum from its natural hybrids with parv or pub or from montanum. Maybe You will be able to classify it with the help of the above website and the key there.

Very nice pictures

Kind regards

The Cyps are still mostly in bud; but soon, soon the ditches here will be yellow for miles with C. pubescens (replacing the yellow Caltha palustris which bloomed first there). And the woods with plenty of C. acaulis and C. reginae.

For now, C. arietinum is the first to bloom in the garden.
