    1. Reviewed by Thomas E. Linkous    Aug 16, 2006

    Action: changed name from "Cypripedium sp." to "Impatiens sp. "

    Reviewer's comments:
         "The plant in the photo is not an orchid. It is in the genus Impatiens and is probably one of a couple of eastern species of touch-me-not. It could be Impatiens capensis or Impatiens pallida, but it is difficult to determine if the color reproduction is acurate in the photo."
