Yellow Lady Slipper and Cake

 There are Yellow Lady Slippers along our driveway, this year there are four blooms. 


Such a pretty flower...one of my favorites! 

Peach had a cake!  So she is officially one!  Jen shared this photo with us.

Lady Slippers are elegant flowers. I have never seen one in the wild.

I’d love to run across a Lady’s Slipper in the woods. It’s beautiful!

I don't think I have seen this flower before, but I love the pretty yellow color. This is an adorable photo of Peach with her 1st birthday cake. Looks like she enjoyed it.

Lady Slippers are a treasure. Ours were pink and smaller and a rare find in the woods.

The lady slippers are one of my favorite wildflowers too. I've not seen in yellow in our area, though I keep looking. They are pink here.

They are one of the coolest flowers! It is always a treat to see one as they grow so randomly in the wild.

Sandi said...

Oh my goodness, that cake! 😄

Lady slippers are not a flower I have heard of but look so nice, just like I am sure the cake was nice and she made a nice mess eating as well

Lady slippers are always a favorite flower of mine, since growing up in Minnesota. Can't decide which I like better...the yellow or the pink!
I love the birthday picture.....so sweet! Hope you're doing OK!

I remember Ladyslippers growing wild in Manitoba. They were yellow; I don't know if any pink ones grew in our area.

Donna said...

A cake smash! I hadn't even known they existed until my first grand daughter had one. It was hilarious.
Happy birthday Peach!

I've yet to see a ladyslipper...perhaps..one day!

I saw my first ladyslipper in person last January in London. My daugher-in-law took me to an apothecary garden that has been in existence since the early 1600's. It's where the doctors back then grew their medicine. It was fascinating and I really enjoyed it. But it had ladyslippers growing in January. So pretty.
Peach is a doll and that cake is really pretty. It looks like she had a wonderful time smashing it! First birthdays are always really special.
Blessings,
Betsy
