Ladyslippers
Hi all! I am new to this forum and wanted to share some gorgeous Ladyslippers I found in the Great Smoky Mountains national park last weekend.

Very pretty! I would love to find orchids here in Maryland. I know they grow here, I've looked a little while out hiking. If I ever see them, I'll be thrilled. I will be sure to share pictures as well. Lucky you, thanks for sharing!

Thanks Patty! I would love to see your finds. Here is another shot I got...for some reason I can't post more than one photo at a time.

Ooooh those are gorgeous! I love the color. Are there many growing together? Can you imagine having them in your garden just growing wild! It makes me wonder if local nurseries have them, I've never considered that before.
I am only able to load one picture at a time. I use an iPad.

From my experience, every time you try to attach a photo from your IPad it is given the same name (I believe it is "photo"). Therefore, the last photo you try to attach is the one used. I haven't found a way to rename the attachments. Maybe someone else has found a way around this? |

These are great to see, still growing in the wild. It has been awhile , since I was a teenager back in the Ozarks, that I have seen many growing in the wild. They have become rarer and rarer, areas that use to have them, now it is very hard to find any. There are specialized nurseries on the internet that have many different Cypripedium species and hybrids available and many other hardy ground orchids.Thanks for the photos
