Really wonderful pictures but a typical barbatum.
Cypripedium nigritum was described with darker flowers, so the name of this plant should be changed, also when nowerdays 'nigritum' is only used in trade and not accepted by some authorities.
Best greetings

A typical barbatum.........Var. nigritum `Dyak Warrior' has a beautiful bronze over-lay on the petals, which are sparsely, but darkly, spotted. Will try to find/scan my slide of `Dyak Warrior'. Quite nice, actually...... Not sure of the parentage for barbatum `Dyak Warrior', but pretty sure it isn't a pure species......

In that case it should not be called P. barbatum nor P. barbatum var. nigritum
Correct - assuming it's a natural hybrid (not necessarily a correct assumption) it should have a different name; not Paph. barbatum var nigritum" . Hope you are feeling better , Guido.

I am feeling OK ... but how should I ask that tumor whether he (she?) left something behind ...???
PS. Does Fox Valley have its own golf balls? ;-)
At the rate I'm losing golf balls, Fox Valley can't affford to spend $ putting it's name on them
