Minnesota has many wild flowers that show up each spring and summer. The Showy Lady Slipper is the state flower and is outstanding for its color and shape. The subtle violets and pure white displayed in a green landscape make for a breath-taking scene. It is a span of 20 years from the time this plant begins its life in the earth until it blooms for the first time. How special is that!
