MPF Webinar: Missouri’s Prairie Orchids with Steve Buback
Orchids are most familiar as tropical plants that seem at home growing off a tree branch in a swamp or rainforest, but Missouri is home to 27 orchid species that occupy niches ranging from swamp in the Bootheel to loess hill prairies in northwestern Missouri. Of these orchids, nine species from three genera are found in tallgrass prairies. These orchids share some traits with their shade-loving kin, but also have a slew of adaptations to surviving in a drought- and fire-prevalent system. Presenter Steve Buback will pay particular attention to the federally threatened eastern and western prairie fringed orchid, Platanthera leucophaea and P. praeclara, as these are some of the most well studied of the prairie orchids.
