Lady's slipper is a term that refers to a type of orchid that typically grows in North America. There are several other names that can be used interchangeably with lady's slipper, including moccasin flower, slipper orchid, and steeple cap. The name "moccasin flower" is derived from the shape of the flower, which resembles a moccasin shoe. The name "slipper orchid" is also a nod to the flower's shape. Additionally, some species of lady's slipper are known as steeple cap due to the pointed shape of the bulge at the top of the flower. Despite the variety of names, all of these terms refer to the same beautiful and unique orchid.
