Cypripedium calceolus x segawai
Cypripedium calceolus x segawai has beautiful, medium-sized, bright yellow slippers with deep brownish-burgundy, rippled petals 1-3 per 8-20 inch stem in April to May.
This Cypripedium hybrid brings together the yellow C. calceolus from Eurasia and the bright yellow C. segawai endemic to Taiwan. The result is beautiful, medium-sized, bright yellow slippers with deep brownish-burgundy, rippled petals 1-3 per 8-20 inch stem in April to May. Grown from seed. Plants will resemble the image but may not be identical. Lady’s slipper hybrids are much more vigorous and easy to grow than species. Well cared for clumps can double their flowering stems ever year!
