I got this orchid last summer. Cypripedium x Andrewsii had been doing well this spring until the slugs had begun munching on its leaves. I moved it to a pot this last week for protection from the slugs and to be in a place with a little more sun.

I need to know the best way to care for it, and it's blooming time. Has anyone attempted growing those with success?

Bletilla striata are naturalized in several beds around my yard so I had hoped the Cypripedium would not be too complicated. Confused
