I’ve been going to the NH Media Makers meetups for a while now (almost a year!) and wanted to give the Media Makers meetup idea and especially the New Hampshire instantiation of same a big appreciative shout out.

Just as I did last year, I’m going to highlight a few plants that I found particularly interesting.

Masdevallia ignea – a native of New Grenada according to Curtis’s Botanical Magazine Vol. 98 (1872) – second image ganked from Google books.
