Minnesota's Beautiful State Flower! Information to come soon :) Check out the MN DNR website for now. http://www.dnr.state.mn.us/snapshots/plants/showyladysslipper.html

Notes:

I recently found out that the cool little spider hiding inside of the lady slipper is a goldenrod crab spider. Check out my related spotting if you want to know more about him :) http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/8626943
