Dactylorhiza Foliorella and Cypripedium Ulla Silkens are two superplants that produce more shoots every year. Very easy if they get enough water.

Hi Ashley. They are all easy to grow, full sun or semi-shade and plenty of water, except helleborine and atrorubens, they prefer drier conditions. My soil is a silty loam, but I don't think soil type matters, I have seen nicely grown plants in both sandy soil and peat. Palustris has shallow roots and needs some sort of soil cover to keep the soil moist and cool, I use wood chips. Veratrifolia is a bit frost-sensitive and needs winter mulching. I don't recommend gigantea, it is very weedy and has the potential to become an invasive species in nature, its hybrid Catalina is almost as bad.
