Oh to have Cypripedium naturalizing in your
garden or adjacent woods. I think Giorgio was growing Cypripedium.
Any one else growing this successfully in the ground or aware of
specific species that are lasting?
I suppose it has a lot to do with what species are native to the
immediate area. On a visit to a garden near Anchorage, Alaska, I saw
Cypripedium guttatum growing in masses, invading the lawn etc. The
gardener dug some roots for us, but as far as I know no one who got
them managed to grow it.
