Default Favorite Group Of Slippers

What Is you favorite group of slippers? I go Paphiopedilums and Cypripediums, phrags don't really look attractive to me (unless they are kovachii or besseae)

It use to be a run away with paphiopedlums and multiflorals are still my favorites. However, as of late I have really gotten into phrag. besseae crosses, I love Jason Fishers.

I dont grow Cyps... yet. I stalk them in the wild.

I know where there are populations of regine, arietinum, acaule, and parviflorum var pubescens.

When I have a house and a yard I plan to grow cyps outdoors.
