Cypripedium acaule in Newfoundland
Well I fianally have some native orchids open in my area. Our orchid season starts with C. acaule and this year they are quite common (some years you are hard-pressed to find any). I took a few pics this morning. Enjoy!

Hi Todd
Nice pics. Does anyone know why they are more common this year? ![Scratch chin](https://www.orchidboard.com/community/images/smilies/new/scratchchin.gif)

Yes Tin it is fully open; this Cyp never seems to open as much as others in the genus.
