Four Reasons to Visit Cedar Bog

Today I will let the photos do the talking. Cedar Bog offers some of the most exciting plants and creatures found in Ohio, and it was a pleasure to explore with some great botanists and good friends.

Grass Pink, Calopogon puchellus an exquisite orchid. Puchellus is Latin for beautiful.


Showy Lady's-slipper, Cypripedium reginae, truly the Queen of the Orchids.


A Haploa moth, a stunning day-flier,

and a Five-line Skink. Check out the blue tail!
If you would like to see Cedar Bog in July, browse the field trip possibilities at Mid-West Native Plant Conference. See you there!
