The Lady's Slippers along the driveway are in bloom. I believe there are four blooms. You cannot get real close because of the Poison Ivy!
The sun was very bright at noon when I took the photos with my cell phone. I was running errands...checking on/playing with dogs, getting the mail, taking the garbage out and checking on she who sees robins first (knee surgery). I picked a good time to be out and about as it rained quite hard later in the afternoon.

i love lady's slippers....and your little fawns so adorable!
ReplyDeleteThe yellows are pretty! I haven't seen any this year, yours are tucked away safely in that poison ivy. :)
ReplyDeleteI've never seen yellow Lady Slippers in person - just pink ones. So pretty! Things look pretty lush and green there.
ReplyDeleteI can depend on you for some photos of yellow lady slippers. I took my annual photos yesterday.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful lady slippers. I'm SO allergic to poison ivy. When I was a kid I had to get weekly shots. If I was in a 1 mile radius of a plant I would get it through the air. No kidding. It was awful. It sounds as if you had a great time running errands, even getting to play with dogs. Not much better than that.

Love the lady's slippers! I wish I had some in the garden!
ReplyDeleteRain always freshens things up. I love your Lady Slippers. They don't grow here.
ReplyDeleteWhat beauties. I’ve never actually seen one in person way up here on the Redwood Coast (California). Have a nice day. It’s overcast here with a few showers tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteLady Slippers are a favorite of mine! Glad you are checking on your neighbor!
ReplyDeleteLady Slippers are so delicate and so beautiful!! It's been years since I've seen one.
ReplyDeleteI love when it's lady slipper blooming time. The pink ones in my area bloomed early here this year.
ReplyDeleteThe lady slippers are lovely. I've not seen them here.
ReplyDeleteYou had a very busy day!
Those Lady’s Slippers are gorgeous! Four blooms is such a treat. Good thing you snapped photos before the rain came.
ReplyDeleteLady Slippers are so cool!!!
