NATIVE ORCHIDS 
Native orchids grow best in a shady or semi-shady, cool and 
somewhat moist situation. Set them just below the surface of the 
ground, as you would a peony root, making sure that the crowns will 
at no time be covered with water. 
CYPRIPEDIUM ACAULE (The Moccasin Flower) The large slipper 
is bright rose, with darker veins and the spike rises from the 
center of two broad green leaves. It is a beautiful plant but 
not quite so adaptable as are C. Reginae and C. pubescens. 
$35.00 per 100 flowering buds 
CYPRIPEDIUM PARVIFLORUM (The Small Yellow Ladyslipper) A 
fragrant flower with brilliant yellow hood and brown “ribbons.” 
It is easy to grow in any shady situation. 
$35.00 per 100 flowering buds 
CYPRIPEDIUM PUBESCENS (The Large Yellow Ladyslipper) The 
blooms are considerably larger than the above though the color 
is not quite so brilliant. A handsome plant and one of the most 
readily established. $35.00 per 100 flowering buds 
CYPRIPEDIUM REGINAE Also known as C. spectabile and C. hir- 
sutum. (The Showy Ladyslipper). This is the finest of our na- 
tive Ladyslippers and the easiest to grow. The blooms are 
large, with a pink slipper backed by great white wings. The 
average height is 15 to 18 inches but plants may reach 2 to 3 
feet in some locations. $35.00 per 100 flowering buds 
HABENARIA BLEPHARIGLOTTIS (The White Fringed Orchid) The 
small flowers are white, with a fringed lip and arranged on 
a long spike. In contrast to the Ladyslipper family the Fringed 
Orchids flower in late July and August. 
$45.00 per 100 flowering buds 
HABENARIA FIMBRIATA (The Large Purple-fringed Orchid) The 
flowers are lilac with a fringed lip and fragrant. July and Au- 
gust. $45.00 per 100 flowering buds 
TRILLIUM 
TRILLIUM GRANDIFLORUM We list only this one which is by 
far the most attractive of the Trilliums. The plant grows to 12 
or 15 inches and the large white blooms change to rosy lilac 
as they mature. $20.00 per 100 $150.00 per 1000
