If I may show my ignorance about wild plants - I note the term "rams head 
lady slipper". Is this our ordinary lady's slipper, or is it another 
variation of it?  In fact, I have always wondered if the white ladies 
slipper was a different version of the species.  We used to see them quite 
often when I was young  up the East branch of the Bear River.

Roland.
