Cypripedium Reginae
Hi everyone 
I've always wanted to try Cyps and so, this January, I took the plunge and got three. The other two (flavum Alba and tibeticum) aren't flowering size yet, but the Reginae has come up with two flowers. It's so pretty, I love it to bits! The second flower hasn't quite come out yet, but I couldn't wait to post the progress pics and the final flower. Hope you enjoy |

Thanks Everyone
Here are some pics of the new flower and the two together. Unfortunately, the wind slightly caught the left flower in one shot, but I thought I'd upload anyway. I also tried to get a nice close-up of the spotting in the pouch, this was the best I could do |
