Phragmipedium Firestorm 'Huron Phoenix'

[Erythrone]

This plant is Phragmipedium Firestorm (Phragmipedium besseae x Phragmipedium Ruby Slippers). I got a division from JohnM a few years ago but I think its plant was from Russel (am I right?). A beauty anyway!!! The clonal name Russel and John gave to the plant is 'Huron Phoenix'

No, I didn't know it was a shy bloomer. It it grown in Sphagnum moss, watered very often.
