cgbb2004Description
The largest "cups" or discs are about 2 to 3 mm in diameter. I bracket photos for exposure. The under-exposed photos are more color-accurate for the brilliant red color of this species.

Pink Lady's Slipper (Cypripedium acaule)Observer
janice22sDescription
I use this genus & species name but wonder if it is actually something different? The leaves are very similar to the pink, but they are all about half the height, and seem to have a slightly but consistent difference in shape of flower with the large open hole in the front of the pouch.
Any ideas on ID?

Middle stem leaf blades lanceolate to narrow-oblong, usually cuneate at the base, 2–5 times as long as wide
This color morph reminds me a lot of Galearis spectibilis :)

Butternut (Juglans cinerea)Observer
tsnDescription
This is a very large tree, right beside the main path at Muddy Brook Park. Estimated diameter half a meter (18-20 inches). There are no branches low enough to give a good look at the leaves or twigs. If this is a Butternut, it is the biggest one I have ever seen, and it is remarkably healthy, with just a few dead branches in the crown. The other option is Amur cork tree.
@micholoko Does this look like a Butternut to you, or not?
There were some other Butternuts nearby, but all smaller and all dead or nearly dead.
