Cypripedium franchetii x segawai
This Cypripedium franchetii x segawai has beautiful, medium-sized, white flowers with dark pink veining produced 1-2 per 12 inch stem in May.
This Cypripedium hybrid brings together the pink C. franchetii from Mainland China and the yellow C. segawai endemic to Taiwan. The result is beautiful, medium-sized, white flowers with dark pink veining produced 1-2 per 12 inch stem in May. Exact hardiness is still unknown. 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!
