New York Flora Association Blog

A new field guide to the orchids of New England and New York is now available.  The photos of Tom Nelson and the text of Eric Lamont (NYFA board member) have produced a very useful and beautiful book.  Characters are discussed in relation to closely related species which is very helpful for field identification and other useful information is included with every species.  There is a series of fruit photos in the front of the book which is also very helpful and unique.  How many times have you wished you knew what orchid it was that you were seeing in fruit.  The small size of the book is a plus for field use so there is no excuse for not knowing what species of Spiranthes that is. It is available on Amazon and in other fine bookstores. – Steve Young
