This is a "Yellow Lady's Slipper". It is one of this country's true orchids.
It grows in the wild and is on the endangered list. We have 2 growing naturally on our place and about 200 that were saved when an area was clear cut. They are truly remarkable.
Enjoy!
These are beautiful. I don't think I've ever seen one.
