Orchids of Britain and Ireland: a poster

-

After a considerable amount of time since I started this project I can now happily release the results: an A3 poster of the orchids of Britain and Ireland (species, subspecies, varieties and forma) as well as a second A2 poster of the orchids of Britain and Ireland with the species, subspecies, varieties and forma plus additional hybrids, extinct natives, extant and historical adventives and probable extant introductions.

Both posters are for sale, with details at the bottom of this blog post.

The species chosen are that recognised by Cole and Waller (2020) (no affiliation) and hence include some of the most recent British orchid finds as well as recent taxonomic changes including Epipactis and Dactylorhiza. Each orchid 'icon' includes a graphic of an individual orchid flower, the common name (and alternative names), scientific name and space to write a date and a tick box. The posters are printed on 170gsm poster paper, and as the posters also act as a tick-chart, can be ticked using pen or pencil.

The posters will be for sale at a reduced price for the first print run, so as to gauge interest and allow for security in the cost of batch printing and packaging. This will run for two weeks from the 13/07/2021-27/07/2021.The A3 (portrait) poster is for sale at £15 including postage and packaging and the A2 (landscape) poster is for £20.

I am also working on a variety of greetings cards based upon these British and Irish orchid designs, if you are interested in these for the future, please register your interest, or keep updated on this blog.
