“Wait – wait, I promise if you just–” Kennedy scowled as the person kept walking, and she crumpled the flyer she had in her hand. She hated being ignored, and she was definitely going to be yelling at Kels later for agreeing to hand out these flyers about saving the...Arethusa bulbosa. “A fucking plant. I can’t believe I’m being ignored on behalf of a fucking plant.” She stopped in front of the person, who had been walking up behind her, “Sign this goddamn petition. Thanks.” It only took her a half a second too late to recognize the person she’d shoved a flyer at, “Sorry. Bad day.”

Spring 2017
Orchids are some of the most variable plants on the planet. There are over 20,000 different species with more to be discovered. This painting includes a few species of the hundreds that are marked as endangered, including (clockwise from top left:
Paphiopedilum sanderianum
Cowhorn Orchid (Cyrtopodium punctatum) -
Clamshell Orchid (Prosthechea cochleata)
Rothschild’s Lady’s Slipper (Paphiopedilum rotschildum)
Ghost Orchid (Dendrophylax lindenii) (center)
Blue Sun Orchidi (Thelymitra lucida)
Underground Orchid (Rhizanthella gardneri)
Dragon’s Mouth Orchid (Arethusa bulbosa)
Moccasin Flower (Cypripedium acaule)
As of September 2017 I own two orchids--one is a Moth Orchid (Phalaenopsis) that you can find in any supermarket, and the other was bought from an orchid breeder. In the mornings and evenings it gives off the aroma of milk chocolate.
I’d like to have more, but I’m afraid that I’ll turn into the orchid variation of a cat lady, and I’m already the latter.

Webb’s Mill Bog is located within the Greenwood Wildlife Management Area in southern NJ.
I made this hike by following their small trail and boardwalk system, you get an up close view of some very interesting plants. From wild orchids, to pitcher plants, to things that looked sticky, you will find them all just inches from where you stand on the boardwalk.
The overall area of the bog is small, but very nice.
Making the overall length of trails rather small as well. The “public” trails here are a mix of a skinny (not wide) wooded trail, and a boardwalk going over the bogs. Once you find the entrance (see directions for that info), you will follow the skinny, somewhat overgrown trail going through the woods for about 300 feet. The trail turns right a left a few times with a few small side trails. Not too far into main trail, you will see the grey boardwalk through the woods. Just use common sense, following the most worn trails and you will eventually find the boardwalk. The boardwalk section is also very skinny. The It is an oval in shape, around 400 feet long. When we visited in August/2018, the railings were all very warped, but the decking / boardwalk itself was in great shape. Following the boardwalk will allow you get a close up view of the flora of the bog. And it is easy to know what you are looking at with the addition of informational signs all around the boardwalk.
How to get there:
To get there I eventually got onto Cr-539 south. We were looking for the Webbs Mill Branch bridge and the Greenwood Wildlife Management Area sign. The trail head is across the street and about 40 feet south of the WMA sign.
