Went by Selby today on my way home from the computer store and got this picture of a great lady slipper. There was also a Thunbergia mysorensis blooming and I was in such a hurry to photograph it, that I forgot to get an ID on the lady slipper--and then, of course, the Thunbergia pictures were less than I had hoped. Maybe I'll get back this weekend or sooner.

That's one of the asiatic Paphiopedilums, related to but not interfertile
with our native Cypripediums. Looks like _might_ be Paph. rothschildianum
or perhaps one of its hybrids.
