Selenipedium is a genus of the Orchid family (Orchidaceae) (Subfamily Cypripedioideae). The genus has been given its own tribe, Selenipedieae, and subtribe, Selenipediinae. It is abbreviated Sel in trade journals.
The name of the genus is derived from the Greek selen, which means "moon", and pedium, which means "slipper" (referring to the pouch).
The seed capsules of these Central and South American lady's slipper orchids were formerly used as vanilla substitutes, but selenipediums are now rarely cultivated. Partly this is because of the difficulty of doing so, but is probably also due to the relatively small size of the Selenipedium's flower. The wild flower's Amazonian habitat is also under threat, so extinction is a risk for all species of Selenipedium.
There are only six true selenipedium species known ():

I´ve got no place else to go.
The cumulus-portal is closing above me.
I´ve got no one else to turn to.
My shining armour knight rode straight out on me.
Star after star exposed.
Born to be on the show
is there a minor role
for a moon soul ?
Star after star explodes
Everyone is alone
Is there a place in the sun
for a moon soul ?
Here and now,
changes come in crowds
Pearls of rain erode the lane
I am seasick
You seem so in balance
Please, don´t dump me with this pain
I´m no strategist, and you are such a challange
Star after star...
I want no one else but you
Anything you want me to,
I will do.
Power is sweet
but so is retreat
And the wild orchids unfold their secrets on repeat
