Cypripedium 'Renate' has both its petals and the pouch in pure white beautifully striped with raspberry pink.
‘Renate’ could also be called ‘Candy Cane’ or ‘Candy Stripe’. Both the petals and the pouch are pure white and beautifully and distinctly striped with raspberry pink. The pouch can also have a flush of pink. The flowers are large with one per stem, the stems reaching up to 14 inches high. Blooms in May. Grown from seed.
