Default Cypripedium acaule in western PA
My wife and I camped at a state park in western PA for our anniversary in mid May. While the mountain laurels were about a week away, we did run across a nice stand of Pink Lady's Slippers.





My favourite shot below.







Cheers.
Jim

I really really like shot number three, that was before I saw your comment about how much you like it. Nice find!
