I love wild slippers, and the US seems to have such a diversity of them. Great photo, it's lovely.

I love that big pink lip. It's a shame most of those terrestrial slippers would perish here in Florida. I wonder if there are any species that would do well here? |

Thanks for the great photo. As a child I remember walking through the woods and seeing these by the dozens. Around here (central Maine), we have white, pink, and yellow, with the yellow being the hardest to find.
Thanks again.

Wonderful. Always good to see them in the wild and that's a great shot.

It was very exciting for me, as I'd never seen a slipper orchid in the wild before. Thanks for your comments!
