Description

Use Lady's Slipper Orchid (Paphiopedilum spp.) in garden borders and beds as an annual garden plant. Prepare a place with full sun, moderately fertile, well-drained soil, and room for normal growth.

Begin seeds at the crop's suitable depth in a ready planting area. Water moderately and prevent the soil from becoming waterlogged through establishment, then remove spent flowers as needed to keep the planting tidy.
