  • Ladys' Slipper Orchids of India
    Ladys’ SlipperH.J. Chowdhery Orchids of India ABOUT THE BOOK The Lady's Slipper or Slipper Orchids are an extremely well known group of orchids. The are popularly called Lady's slippers because of the presence of a highly modified pouch-like lip or labellum, which looks similar to a lady's slipper. They are highly priced and much sought after in the floriculture industry as potted plants as well as cut flowers due to their enchantingly attractive, colourfull blooms and ability to remain fresh for several weeks. The presently known five lady's slipper orchid genera , which belong to the orchid subfamily Cypripedioideae are widely distributed in the temperate regions of Eurasia and North America, Central America south to Brazil and Bolivia, tropical Asia from India across to Taiwan, south-east Asia from Indo-China acrossP. druryi to the, which Philippines, is endemic New to Guinea, Western and Ghats. the Solomon Islands. In India, only two genera namely Cypripedium and Paphiopedilum are found, which are confined to the Himalayan and North-East Indian region except one species of Paphiopedilum The book is the first ever comprehensive taxonomic treatment of Indian Slipper orchids. In the introductory part of the book, a brief history of lady’s slipper orchids, their taxonomy and a glimpse of all the five known genera of this group has been provided. The main part of the text comprises of the detailed taxonomic information on the 14 species of lady’s slippers (Cypripedium-5 and Paphiopedilum-9) reported from India. The descriptions for all the species have been drawn from the live plants along with colour plates made from fresh flowers for the first time for these orchids.

    SLIPPERS OF THE SPIRIT The Genus Cypripedium in Manitoba ( Part 1 of 2 ) by Lorne Heshka he orchids of the genus Cypripedium, commonly known as Lady’s-slippers, are represented by some Tforty-five species in the north temperate regions of the world. Six of these occur in Manitoba. The name of our province is aboriginal in origin, borrowed Cypripedium from the Cree words Manitou (Great Spirit) and wapow acaule – Pink (narrows) or, in Ojibwe, Manitou-bau or baw. The narrows Lady’s-slipper, or referred to are the narrows of Lake Manitoba where strong Moccasin-flower, winds cause waves to crash onto the limestone shingles of in Nopiming Manitou Island. The First Nations people believed that this Provincial Park. sound was the voice or drumbeat of the Manitou. A look at the geological map of Manitoba reveals that the limestone bedrock exposures of Manitou Island have been laid down by ancient seas and underlies all of southwest Manitoba. As a result, the substrates throughout this region Lorne Heshka are primarily calcareous in nature.

  • Ram's-Head Lady Slipper (Cypripedium Arietinum R. Br.)
    Nova Scotia Provincial Status Report on Ram’s-Head Lady Slipper (Cypripedium arietinum R. Br.) prepared for Nova Scotia Species at Risk Working Group by Sean Blaney and David Mazerolle Atlantic Canada Conservation Data Centre P.O. Box 6416, Sackville, NB E4L 1C6 Funding provided by Nova Scotia Department of Natural Resources January 3, 2007 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Species information Ram’s-head Lady Slipper (Cypripedium arietinum) is a small, herbaceous, perennial, orchid of open forests. Stems are 15-30 cm high and bear three to four (rarely five) narrowly ovate leaves. Flowers are solitary (rarely 2) and relatively small for the genus, with the sac-like lip petal of the flower white above, and purple to crimson below and is elongated into a downward-pointing, conical shape. Distribution Ram’s-head Lady Slipper occurs in east-central North America, concentrated in the Great Lakes-Saint Lawrence region, but extending from Nova Scotia, Maine and southern Quebec to central Saskatchewan, south to New England, New York, Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota. The species’ southern limit is near the Great Lakes from Wisconsin to Connecticut (latitude ~42oN) and its northern limit is in Saskatchewan and Manitoba (latitude ~53oN). The species is considered extirpated from Connecticut and rare (S3) to extremely rare (S1) in each of the 14 jurisdictions where it presently occurs. In Nova Scotia it is known from five sites in West Hants Regional Municipality, all within 9 km of the hamlet of Poplar Grove, plus one site at Angevine Lake in northeast Cumberland County. Habitat Ram’s-head Lady Slipper is found in moderately open forests possessing cool, sub-acid or neutral soils.

Cover image: silky townsend daisy (Townsendia exscapa) top left; fascicled ironweed (Vernonia fasciculata ) bottom right. Executive Summary Information on 35 rare and uncommon plant species was gathered by the Manitoba Conservation Data Centre (CDC) in 2006 through field surveys and acquisition of data from associates. A total of 111 occurrences were newly documented or updated. Results of comprehensive field surveys of sites occupied by the following eight rare species are summarized in this report. Buffalograss (Buchloe dactyloides) Fascicled Ironweed (Vernonia fasciculata) Hairy Prairie-clover (Dalea villosa) Northern Adder’s-tongue (Ophioglossum pusillum) Ram’s-head Lady’s-slipper (Cypripedium arietinum) Silky Townsend Daisy (Townsendia exscapa) Small White Lady’s-slipper (Cypripedium candidum) Western Silvery Aster (Symphyotrichum sericeum) Data collected includes mapping plant patches in the field using a GPS equipped hand held computer, plant abundance, habitat characteristics and threats. Notes on the other 27 species surveyed by the CDC and associates are also included. Two information sharing and stewardship initiatives were implemented in 2006. Maps of road allowances supporting species at risk were produced for two rural municipalities to help mitigate threats associated with road maintenance activities.
