Lady slipper orchid 'variegated'

Genus: Cypripedium.

Species: Cypripedium.

The lady slippers seem to like my place the most of all my orchids. This is a variegated variety, pleasing foliage with a green and white flower that is not bright but still very exotic. I put it's pot in a short heavy glass vase with some aquarium gravel to hold it up to help it keep humid. It has rewarded me with flowers again and again.
