Default Cypripedium candidum

A friend sent these pictures to me from a nature conservancy in Maryland. Sorry the pictures aren't that great. Apparently these candidums were growing on a very steep, inaccessible slope. Still, I thought some people might be interested.

Thanks Sonya. There's one candidum in bud in the garden I work at, so hopefully I can get a better picture.
