Cypripediums at the Botanical Garden
Took my mom to the New York Botanical Gardens this Sunday (Mom's Day). On our tour of the rock garden we came across some Cypripediums.
First is C. parvifolium var pubescens
Then we have a Cypripedium hybrid. Silly me forgot to take a picture of the tag.
And finally another hybrid, this time forgot to take a picture of the flower without the tags, C. Gisela (C. parviflorum x C. macranthos).
