I have two Cypripediums, very mature plants, given to me by a friend when she had to move. They've been in large pots for several years. I know I can divide them if I do it now, but today I discovered several seedpods on C. montanum. One reference I have suggests some hardy orchids can be sown on sterile sphagnum in a sterile pot covered with a sheet of glass. My question is this: Will the soil from my Cyps have the right fungus or mycorrhiza that if used to sow the seed will enable germination? These plants were in the ground in a garden and when I dug them, did not remove the soil around their roots when I potted them in a container mix.
