Orchids! No other group of plants arouses such immediate interest.
No other plants invoke such a strong desire to know more about
them, and certainly no group of plants is in such desperate need of
human understanding and compassion; in the northeast far too many
of their kind stand poised on the brink of extinction. Orchids of
the Northeast is a must for orchid enthusiasts everywhere. Along
with innovative identification keys and a glossary of botanical
terms, William K. Chapman includes the latest research collected on
these fascinating flowers. For instance, to allow for current
classification changes, three varieties of Cypripedium
parviflorum-yellow lady's slippers-are listed, as well as the
recently recognized species of Platanthera huronensis, and Malaxis
bayardii, and the proposed Platanthera pallida. The many color
photographs in Orchids of the Northeast makes this book a visual-
as well as a botanical-treasure.
