“The Lady's Slipper Orchid (Cypripedium calceolus) is Britain's rarest and most iconic wild flower. Recognised by its striking yellow pouch and dark maroon petals, it was thought to be nearly extinct in the 20th century due to over-collection, but conservation groups have reintroduced propagated plants back into the wild in Northern England. Last summer, the first new naturally occurring Lady’s-slipper Cypripedium calceolus plant was discovered in the wild for almost 100 years. "

Don’t worry, I haven’t been sneaking around those protected, secret, sites, I have handmade my Crepe paper Lady's Slipper Orchid UK from specialist crepe paper, glue, liquid watercolour paint and wire. 

What a conversation piece! She stands just 30cm tall, 10 cm wide and 9 cm deep.
