It is very disappointing that I have no Yellow Lady's Slipper Orchids in my woodland garden. There are plenty of Jack-in-the-Pulpit. I will have to further investigate the critical differences between the requirements of the two.
I would like to buy some Yellow Lady's Slipper Orchids, but prices are not for the faint of heart.
For example, see http://www.hillsidenursery.biz/orchids.htm.
