Catching up with communications in the Botany Group during July. This is from an email from Jocie to the group on July 4.
John B. discovered a nice patch of elegant rein orchid (Piperia elegans) at Woodhus Slough, and sent along these photos:
John says there were 12 plants in an area with about a 12 ft radius.
Here are a few other notes of interest from John:
- The beggarticks at Woodhus Slough is not in bloom yet, whereas on Quadra in a bog at about 750 ft it is fully in bloom. Climate does strange things.
- The clustered broomrape mentioned recently for the Comox Lake Bluffs is also on Quadra (west side, private shore).
