We’re currently having some discussions on whether the Ladies’ Tresses orchids seen on the Coontree walk are Spiranthes tuberosa (Little Ladies’ Tresses) or Spiranthes cernua (Nodding Ladies’ Tresses). When or if we work it out we’ll post the correct names. Feel free to send your opinions to wcbotanicalclub@gmail.com or add a comment below.

After the field trip a few of us visited another site and found the following plants. Maybe we can all go visit next year
