lady slipper


Question
Hello - I found a flower wich looks like a lady slipper = but was told it was not and is rare look alike that blooms once every seven years - would you happen to know the name of such a look alike so I can look it up and see if I was informed correctly - thank you

Answer
Pete,
Without a photo to look at, I'm not sure what you have found...there are, by the way, many types of lady slipper orchids, and you might look at the following website and try to match your's up: http://www.vtladyslipper.com

I have never heard of a rare lady slipper look alike that only blooms every seven years - you might write the Vermont Lady Slipper folks and ask them about it.

Sorry that I can't identify it for you....
C.L.
