I really like the dwarf habit of the Barry Phillips.

The flowers seem to resemble more segawii than fasciolatum. I hope future blooms will have more developed flowers (rather than pointing up and partly opening)
Cyps sabine alba, Giselle and Paul blooming (taken a couple days apart; brighter day pic earlier in week)

Cyp Paul with Giselle in background
Cyp Hank Small
The original soil is clay. I dug about 1.5 feet down, removed the clay, and then put in turface with some clay soil (about 0.5 foot), and then added some garden soil (top soil) with turface for the rest of the whole.
(turface is expanded baked clay, used I think for baseball fields; it helps with drainage).
However, I have many plants in pots (like the Hank Small I posted today).

Nicely grown and flowered. What are the top temps you get there in summer? Typical summer lows?
My cyps in pots are starting to pop for 2018. Will try to take and post some pics.
In the mean time, first bloom for my Helleborus thibetanus:
