Cypripedium ‘Tilman’ (Frosch)
Cypripedium 'Tilman' has remarkably large flowers comprised of creamy white lady's slippers and magenta-striped sepals.
‘Tilman’ is renowned for its large, clearly coloured flowers on compact stems. The plant itself grows 30-40 cm tall. This makes the remarkable size of the flowers even more impressive. The lip is creamy white and the tepals are striped and spotted with dark pink. An eye-catcher for the front of your orchid bed! Blooms in May. A cross between Cypripedium tibeticum and C. fasciolatum. 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! Blooming size.
