Your chances of seeing one in the wild
Pink Lady's Slipper is endangered in some areas because they take a long time to grow, and because people collect them. Also, since Pink Lady's Slippers cannot grow without the Rhizoctonia fungus, the plants people collect usually die anyway. There are significant efforts to protect Pink Lady’s Slippers, and in most places it is now illegal to remove them from their habitat.

Where do I start, well um, I’ve been researching X-DNA

Where do I start, well um, I’ve been researching X-DNA for probably a decade now more specifically groups of people that are X-DNA matches to me and each other although the laws have changed from what I can tell and what is shared as far as details. What I understand for people that share it is more about the distance they share and details about the segment and the identity of that person but so there is no misunderstanding. The focus of my research is relationships of family groups not individuals to identify common Ancestry in particular the Most Recent Common Ancestor MRCA. My information for a starting point was people who relate to me and are or were publicly identified as an X-Match I used publicly sourced info to find their Dead Ancestors and built tree’s that I could then post On WikiTree and Ancestry. At first I made profiles that are made private since the people are living but since then the rules have changed and you can't do that without their permission but since i am not interested in living people and it requires their impute to confirm my findings I will just wait till rules change or the sights themself find a way to confirm them but at the very least as the genealogy and possibilities develop over time the files or trails will strengthen themselves, Now to dispel some people that would poo poo the whole exercise, number one as time goes by on Wikitree and as the relative populate themselves MRCA will change what might start out with 3 or 4 people with the same common ancestor at 13 generations might end up as 3 who are 5th cousins. I heard people say X-DNA is no go for medieval proof, to answer that question I’ll refer to what 23 and me says, “ If you groups are consistent that is to say one is a subgroup of another one or both things can be true, you share ancient roots or you relate through a long line of female to female ancestry” another thing I would like to clear up is because I’ve posted it as DNA research it is really relationship possibilities based on DNA research and probabilities based on process of elimination, let me give you an example say Ancestry suggest DNA relatives and some are Autosomal DNA matches and two or three are X-DNA I have two matches that suggest additional children of John Wigton Fleming and I do the genealogy and it check out to him, but the only way they work out is they go through his wife to her grandmother I think Jane Drury, and I fine a third X-DNA match that is a complete maternal trail to Jane Drury, they are all related to each other and are say 8th cousins and have been on Wikitree long enough to have much of the tree’s filled in. Now you check there relationship with each other without being connected through John Fleming and the closest you get is 23 generation back if at all, well that may be of interest th people studying Pocahontas or the Earls of Wigton, but beyond that you match to the known children of John or his wife siblings as I do, at some point it becomes more than a probability, the DNA usually doesn't lie and the stronger the Genealogy the higher the probability, there are other factors that may come into play because there is a chance of a strait Maternal line of connection mitochondrial might come as a bonus as well as Y-DNA when a Father to son is in play because Males can only get the X-DNA from their mothers

Happy New Year, all Done. The Good, The Bad , and The Ugly. I cant help but think I'm hurting myself by putting this Book out because my later stuff is defiantly better and I'm not talking about my English. But my purpose is to put out an inclusive book with all my songs and videos, a depository if you will of everything, eventually it will be in order, and maybe a mega drop down menu. My latest stuff it's at ReverbNation, a player's on this page or in these pages. A Few other things, my voice is getting better from the radiation due to throat cancer, but its taking a long time and its not consistent. The fact that I have put out these songs after having had throat and neck cancer justifies to me that some may smell but they will never stink, besides for me it takes just as much to do a bad song/video than a good one . I put the same amount of heart in them. Also remember my stuff is Alternative, Alternative. I use music loops and combine things in a unconventional way, totally Naive, Just like my Art and me. I like to break free from convention and political correctness. For me art is a philosophical pattern of ones own expressions. Most of Mine are simple some Loud.
