The vigorous-growing Cypripedium 'Anna' produces 1' tall stalks topped with white pouches that are heavily-veined violet...resembling a bloodshot eye. The pouches are backed by ruby violet twisted sepals.

Average moisture levels are great, but be certain soils do not remain waterlogged.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eLady slipper orchids are woodland plants, and most species do not have any sun tolerance. We have found that light, high shade is ideal.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003ePlanting is critical, as roots must be spread horizontally just below the soil surface and not stuck deep in the ground as is the case with virtually all other plants.
