Jane and I made two trips to the Eshqua Bog in Hartland, VT this year: one in early June and the other a few days ago. The bog has many unusual plants, including a couple of types of lady slippers. The yellow ones bloom in early June.

The showy lady slippers bloom in late June.

We found a white lady slipper among the showy lady slippers, a mutation?
