Showy Lady Slipper

On Monday I walked the Lake Wobegon Trail between Avon and Albany to see the Showy Lady Slipper. This has been on my bucket list since I learned it was the state flower in grade school.  They are beautiful.  My husband wondered why such an elusive flower was the state flower. It's a good question, and I have no idea why.  

P.S. You may notice a gap in posts--I was traveling in the UK.  I hope to post some garden photos soon. They have a longer growing season and my husband is an Anglophile...it's tempting.
