Lobaria pulmonaria has a leafy, lobed thallus with distinctive ridges and pits. It resembles lobed lung tissue, and was commonly used for treating respiratory disorders during the Renaissance. Pulmonaria is the most widespread in the Pacific Northwest. Along with mosses and liverworts, this...

The Oakmoss Lichen, Evernia prunastri, is commonly found on hardwoods throughout the West Coast. The foliose thallus branches dichotomously once a year, allowing the plant's age to be estimated by counting a series of branch points. Its extracts are used in fine perfumes, acting as a fixative for...

Letharia vulpina and Letharia columbiana are found in dry coniferous forests throughout Western North America, identified by their brilliant yellow green color. While their remarkable color makes them valuable for floral arrangements, commercial harvest has reduced their populations. Columbiana...

Fomitopsis are usually found on dead or dying trees. They are commonly referred to as "conks" because of their tough, woody texture. The fruiting body is evidence of decaying wood beneath the bark. These fungi play an important role in recycling dying plant material and returning nutrients to the...

Amanita muscaria (Fly Agaric) is one of the most striking of all mushrooms, characterized by its bright red cap and white warts. Fruiting generally occurs in early winter in conifer habitats, often in the same areas as the prized Boletus edulis. It is common in western North America, Europe, and...

Sunlight emphasizes the translucent quality of the Morel mushroom. They come in a wide variety of colors and shapes, but their pitted cap and hollow stalk makes them easy to identify. Morel hunting is a springtime ritual in many parts of the country as they are considered a prized delicacy. One...

The succulent leaves store extra moisture that helps the plant survive in when the environment is...

Phlox come in many sizes and colors, including white, pastels, and blazing pinks. They are found in low mounds on rocky outcrops, or in bouquets under the tangle of forest ground vegetation. Their simple shape and bright color make them stand out in any environment, hence the name "Phlox," from...

The deeply furrowed surface of conifer bark is a convenient place for mosses, lichens and fungi to grow. They attach to both living and decaying trees. In contrast, smooth madrone bark, which regularly peels and shreds, provides a less stable growing surface. Mosses and lichens use tree bark only...

The Lungwort (Lobaria pulmonaria) and the Plume moss (Dendroalsia abietina) are among the many lichens and mosses which thrive in humid forest canopies. They capture moisture and nutrients from the air without the need for roots and soil. These nitrogen-rich plants are critical to the nutrient...

The Shooting Star (Dodecatheon hendersonii) grows in grassy meadows and forest openings. The Yellow Flowered Iris (Iris chrysophylla) can be found interspersed in these openings and stands less than eight inches tall. It is one of the less colorful species in a genus whose name (Iris) means "...

Fawn Lilies (Erythronium hendersonii) and Calypso Orchids (Calypso bulbosa) appear in early Spring. Both may arise from bulb-like structures found below ground or just barely covered by mosses and moist forest litter. The Calypso orchid is especially sensitive to disturbance as the bulb is easy...
