Ladyslippers

When we first looked at the land we built our house on (25 years ago) it had many of these beautiful wildflowers, of course after building many disappeared. Each year since I was usually able to find only a few on the other side of the stone wall that runs along our property. Yesterday when my husband told me that he saw some I went looking with camara in hand. At first I only saw 2 then more and more so I am happy that they are doing so well. I am not sure but I think they are only native to New England does anyone know? Gotta get a few things done before it gets too hot, then I plan to finish a quilt top I started yesterday. Have a great day.
