Western Fairy Slipper

We are always on the lookout for all-white Fairy Slippers and occasionally we find very pale forms that still have the colored lip. This one we found in Sharpe Park, but it may be that the flower is white because it's fading. When pollinated and fading they also turn white. In any case we thought it very beautiful.
