I wonder how they can be getting so many "documented salvage" Cypripediums to offer for sale... Strange. Is there some kind of legal loophole, or something? I was under the impression salvaged orchids (endangered species) can never be sold by a nursery in the U.S., that they had to propogate them and sell what they propagated if the endangered species act covered the plants... Apparently not. Sickening.
