Merge proposal

It is proposed to merge Lady's Slipper with this article...Cypripedium acaule. Please discuss this proposal here.SriMesh | talk 01:17, 22 October 2008 (UTC)

You want to merge a subfamily article into a species article? I think not. Hesperian 23:31, 9 November 2008 (UTC)

I think we should not merge the two websites.

I was working on a paper, and needed the specific definition of Lady Slipper. If the Lady Slipper file had been merged with another file, it would be useless to me as I wouldn't be sure what was about the Lady Slipper and what wasn't. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.195.36.60 (talk) 00:01, 10 November 2008 (UTC)

If you are working on a paper and you rely on wikipedia for botanical information, I pity you Damoloces (talk) 01:48, 10 February 2011 (UTC)

Resemblance to a scrotum.

Picture of the day

The Pink Lady's Slipper (Cypripedium acaule) is an orchid native to eastern North America. This widespread species can be found in a wide variety of environments, from coastal plains, to pine barrens, to mountaintops. It is the provincial flower of Prince Edward Island, Canada.Photo: Sasata

A way to stop people from editing to say it's the state flower of Minnesota?

There have been repeated edits trying to change this article to say it's the state flower of Minnesota. (It's not. That's C. reginaethe pink-and-white ladyslipper.) Is there a way to prevent this? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Arctostaphylospallida (talk • contribs) 04:59, 18 October 2018 (UTC)

State flower and state wildflower

The most recents edits introduced errors into the article. The state flower of Minnesota is Cypripedium reginae, while the state wildflower of New Hampshire is Cypripedium acaule. Tom Scavo (talk) 11:58, 18 May 2021 (UTC)

The errors have been removed and a previous (correct) version of the article has been restored. Tom Scavo (talk) 12:11, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
