hi forums
and is this Cyp.tibeticum?
From the photographs, one can only guess ... between franchetii,
macranthos, tibeticum ...
The great master from Kew Heaven writes: " I have taken a boad view of
what constitutes Cypripedium tibeticum because I have
been unable to find consistent features that distinguish between the
plants which have been ascribed to this and other large-flowered
species of this alliance ...."
I had a good laugh when I read the above ...? If he can't
differentiate, how can he say what "substitutes C. tibeticum" ??
regards
Guido
PS Ray: Excellent photographs
