Cypripedium-2015

[Stephen Vella]

wow nice Cyps this year..

Does anyone know the cultivar name or have picks of Cyp parviflorum var maksin X yunanense?
and Cyp  vetricosum X tibeticum?

These maybe new crosses that are getting around as they don't seem to be registered on the frosch web site of list of hybrids.. I think they're coming from a hybridizer in China

cheers

Sorry cannot help as neither cross produces an answer on the International Orchid Register.
I did notice that the Frosch list does not go down to varieties so not helpful when the search is as specific as yours.

Hi Hakone,
your Cypripedium lentiginosum (spelling!) is very pretty. I wish I could grow that, have tried a couple of times but I think the English climate is unsuitable (my excuse).

Maybe searches with the following spellings might help?   
Cypripedium parviflorum var makasin X yunnanense     and   Cypripedium ventricosum X tibeticum ?

[SteveC2]

I did my searches with the right spellings but these crosses are not registered however you spell them.
A lot of red ink flying about today.

[Maggi Young]

Not criticising -but  I know that  spelling can make big difference to search results  gained.

[Anthony Darby]

Don't talk to me about spelling.

[SteveC2]

I happened to be using the hybrid register when I saw Stephen's message.  I was trying and failing to track down names for several Epipactis hybrids and being driven round the bend by predictive text.  Marei always changes to marie etc.  At least I have now bothered to turn it off and so any future mistakes will be my own fault.

got as a cutting in 2010 this Cyp. yatabeanum let me wait 5 years for a flower. a slow grower in my garden, 3 stems in 5 years.



my Cyp. guttattum stock increased from 1 stem in 2004 to 22 stems this year but unfortunately only 1 flowered this year. i guess the last year was too dry + i neglected watering too much. the subtrate is a mix of lava + red-brick grit + this substrate dry out rather quick. this year i gave them a bit fertilizer + water regularly + hope for good flowering next year. here an older pic



i planted the natural hybrid Cyp. x alaskanum (guttatum x yatabeanum) 2 years before and unfortunately lost 2 of them. one started to flower this year but the bud wasn't strong enough to flower + died back. maybe the late frost in april could also be the reason for the small flower bud. but the plant looks still healthy. to show the mix of both species in this hybrid here a pic from last year.

Don't we like a bargain  . Local garden centre price £18.99 each reduced to £5. I did ask when were they going to reduce them  Bought 6 at that price I will try them in my garden.

Beautiful guttatum! I also see a wardii in your profile picture is that yours?!

[Corrado & Rina]

Splendid. What conditions and compost do you use? The plant looks very healthy!

Hi Hakone,

That's actually a C. lichiangense rather than lentiginosum, lovely plant and flower anyway though.

Cheers,

Alex

hi,
there is no registered hybrid from the ventricosum X tibeticum,

BUT there is a hybrid parvifl. X yunnanense., named John, registered by W. Frosch in 2006
it does not make a difference, if used the var. makasin or var. parviflorum.
its always the "basic" name "John"
but will have a "Group" name then (John "yourname" Group)
