Index of Subjects 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.
