FIELD TRIP ETIQUETTE
168
If you are alone when you are in the field in
your orchid exploration you can have pretty much of a
free rein as to how much time you take with the plants
and you will not be spoiling someone else‟s pleasure.
That is unless you roll on the plants or crush some
under foot in your quest to get the perfect shot for your
slide collection. It is also common sense that you don‟t
disturb the environment so much that you endanger the
plants, such as by weeding out the detritus just so you
can get an unimpeded view of your subject (some
orchids need protective cover). Nor is it such a good
idea to leave some kind of noticeable marker to call
attention to the species lest some less scrupulous
person happen upon the scene and decide to collect the
plants for his/her garden or flower vase.
169
if the less generous field trip participant were able to
recognize his or her bad traits and work to modify
them.
170
your irritations in this way may help you be a better
companion to your fellow sufferers for I acknowledge
that every field trip doesn‟t always result in wonderful
experiences. The weather may be miserable or the
insects intolerable or the habitat daunting, but a good
attitude will help the situation rather than make it
worse.
171
trudge onto the actual site when I am exploring. There
have been many times when I have given silent thanks
for having remembered my binoculars. It should go
without saying that the avid photographer should not
stint on the amount of film or equipment he needs to
really do the job. When you are miles from anywhere,
running out of film is a real calamity for the
photographer. If all my paraphernalia seems a little
too much, you can tailor your survival kit to your
specific needs.
172
aren‟t as swift of foot as others or have such sharp
eyes as others). It also means being a cheerful
companion even if it sounds Pollyanna-ish to look for
the bright side in less than perfect situations. It means
being helpful and considerate of your fellow
celebrants. With attitudes like that you will have
pleasant memories of your outing even if it was less
than perfect or not up to your standards. You don‟t
need to sacrifice your standards. You just don‟t have to
make everyone else unhappy because you didn‟t
achieve one hundred per cent of your goals.
173
It was too hot! It was too cold or too windy! There
weren‟t enough plants or there were too many plants!
When she complained on the final day that during the
entire trip she had not taken one photograph worth her
time and money, her companion turned to her and
said, “Then you should learn to take better
photographs!”

Micropropagation
Unfortunately, the genus Cypripedium has not
yielded to attempts at micropropagation. Hoshi et al.
(1994) recently published results of a fairly exhaustive
micropropagation attempt, revealing marginal success
in the way of limited callus production and no evident
protocorms. Our micropropagation attempts with
similar approaches to that of Hoshi et al. (i.e., matrix
experiments) have not been successful. Histological
sections of early seedlings localized meristematic
tissue (Fig. 6). This seemed important for success in
micropropagation. Unfortunately, when these young
seedlings were sectioned, no success in
micropropagation occurred. This is possibly owing to
the difficulty in cutting such small specimens.
Nevertheless, attempts to micropropagate by

Sampline.: All Tressed Up, But No Place to Go
Thomas A. Sampliner
Editor’s note: Botanical keys are often the bane of the amateur
and professional alike. In all of our native orchids no genus has
more similar species than the genus Spiranthes. In preparation
for a field trip in northern Ohio, Tom had prepared a
comparison of several books and field guides. I asked him to
expand it to make these comparisons more pertinent for many
of our members. It was not practical to reprint the various keys
here, but if you have any or all of the books it would certainly
be helpful to lay them out and follow along with Tom‟s
comparisons. Please keep in mind that regional books cite
habitats and flowering dates for their specific areas and often
that data does not strictly apply elsewhere.

Current taxonomic thinking has considerably revised the genus so that
there are 40-45 species and the remaining 300 or so are in a number of
segregate genera. This makes the genus on the whole much more workable.
