Wildflowers of New York State Photo Gallery by David Ruppert at pbase.com

Wildflowers of New York State

I'm a self-taught amateur both as a photographer and as a botanist. I started this gallery just to display the beauty of the flowers, not as a field guide. That's why most of the photos do not inlcude leaves. That said, many viewers are using these photos for flower identification, which is fine. I've been reading field guides and id'ing wildflowers for decades, so I'm reasonably confident about the id's but there are no guarantees. Most of these photos were taken in the wild but some are from gardens. All were taken in the Finger Lakes region of central New York, except that a few where taken in nearby Pennsylvania.

Yes, you can use some photos for your flower identification project. I'm sorry for the slow reply.

Autumn		28-Apr-2023 14:35
Is it ok if I use some photos for a spring flower identification project?

Matt Lambert		18-Jul-2022 13:53
David, Can I get your permission to use 25-30 of these images for a "Wildflower Identification Exercize" here at the Albany (NY) Pine Bush Preserve Discovery Center. Thanks! Matt Lambert, APBDC Visitor Services Associate.

Great gallery David! V

Thank you very much for your wonderful gallery ! I am about to settle in NY state and I was looking for info about wild orchids there. I am happy to see that you photographed several species (Platanthera, Epipactis, Spiranthes, Goodyera, Cypripedium) among tens of other plants I don't even know. My turn to find them now !

Guest		22-Mar-2021 21:29
Thank you for all of your hard work, time and effort into making this website and sharing all of your findings! :)

Thanks for all your hard work on these beautiful pics, I am always searching for wildflowers here in Naples NY, and often don't know the name of them.

All I can say is thank you. I found many images of flowers I'd find in the woods around my house in Forestville New York. Takes me back...

Cynthia		18-May-2019 16:27
All I can say is thank you... I found many flowers that I recall picking as a kid in the woods around Forestville New York.

Sam		19-Jan-2019 18:16
to Joseph who also grew up in New York State putting the name Indian Paintbrush to what we now know is called Hawkweed.. i have really missed this flower. i will always still call it Indian Paintbrush as it deserves such beautiful and descriptive name. Sam

shaukat		21-Aug-2018 16:34
Excellent. Bravo. Great site, made my day hiking and enjoying nature.

jm		21-Jun-2018 20:30
What a great guide! Thanks for all the hard work you put into this. I'll be using it to ID flowers in Upstate NY/Hudson Valley.

Diana Nathanielsz		20-Jun-2018 02:04
Thank you so much for sharing your numerous and terrific photos of wildflowers found in New York State. I have used a dozen or so of the photos to illustrate The Ithaca Garden Club Yearbook 2018-19, reminding members to conserve and plant as many wild flowers as possible. You and your photos have been acknowledged in the Yearbook. ~ Diana

Karen: Thanks for your kind words and suggestion. I just added a photo of a white snakeroot that I took last year.

Karen		15-Sep-2017 14:17
This is a great resource! Thank you. Came here attempting to ID a plant that has been spreading on our property in the last few years. Finally determined that it is white snakeroot, which is blooming right now (September), and think it would be a nice addition to this collection of images, unless it is here somewhere and I've missed it.

Duke		01-Sep-2017 00:17
FANTASTIC!!! I loved every picture. Wildflowers are terrific! So much un-noticed beauty!

Julia		13-Aug-2017 17:52
Thank you so much for all you hard work putting this together. I am sure a labor of love.

Joan		22-Jul-2017 11:53
I'd been looking for the name of my Dptford Pinks for a long time! Thanks

David Ruppert		20-Jul-2017 20:29
Hi Joseph, The flowers you remember from childhood as Indian paintbrushes probably were hawkweeds. I have a photo of an orange hawkweed in this gallery. Hawkweeds are not related to the flowers out west that are called Indian paintbrushes. David

Joseph		19-Jul-2017 05:04
Hi David - I was looking for the name of a flower that we always saw as kids in the summer. I grew up in bath, ny . . . WE always knew them as Indian paintbrushes - they came in red, orange, & yellow, & usually on the sides of roads. Not a very big flower- just a bit of a tuft, actually, & memory tells me the smell was rather repugnant. I got curious about the name cuz we recently saw Indian paintbrush flowers in glacier NP that didn't look at all the same. Can you help me out?

David Ruppert		27-May-2017 20:57
Hi Viv, I also do not know who to ask. The NY wildflowers in 1999 should be mostly the same as what is here now, but some rare ones might be missing. David

Viv		25-May-2017 21:31
Hi David, Thanks for the information! I'm currently searching any wildflowers that found in NY in 1999. Do you have any idea how I can find them? I don't know who to ask this question. Thanks, Viv

David Ruppert		30-Nov-2016 22:10
Seeds and plants grow from seed are available in many places. Use Google for online sources. I buy plants in a nursery near my home that specializes in native plants. That nursery also sells seeds.

Ellen Foote		10-Nov-2016 19:39
can I obtain seeds for any of these wild flowers?

Alex		19-Jul-2016 13:24
Hi, I was just in Eastern upstate New York and the wild flowers there rekindled my love for them. I'd like to give a hardbound coffee table book of the local upstate New York flora to the folks that hosted me. Any suggestions for a beautiful publication? I tried the local bookstore in Coopertown? NY but no luck. Thank you.

Thanks for your site, David. I see wildflowers when I walk and always wonder what their names are. Bladder Campion is my latest one. Paul

Thanks for the compliment about my photos. I respond by email to all questions.

Lesley		22-Jun-2016 03:13
Your photos are gorgeous, and do the flowers justice. Wish I could be as complimentary about your willingness to be a colleague. I'd like to think that you helped those who asked for assistance.

Thanks for you NY state wild flower gallery, Great photography.

Guest		12-Apr-2016 15:27
hello. and thank you david for your beautiful pictures and beautiful mind too...

Coral Crosman		03-Oct-2015 10:09
Somehow I managed to lose both your kind reply to my earlier comment & query but yes, your suggestion that they are asters makes excellent sense - one has to look closely but they do have that 'daisy' structure. Thank you again for your spot-on assistance! Coral Crosman

Mary Pratt		29-Sep-2015 12:47
I have pictures of two rather toxic looking berries/growths from the woods in Delaware county. Couldn't find them on your amazing compilation. Any way I can send you the pics for identification?

Coral		24-Sep-2015 10:15
Beautifulfotos!! I am trying to ID (find the name) for a delicate bushy flower flwerin bout the edges of my back lawn - tiny, pale blooms with a delicate purply-white cast -sorry I can't send pic - cameras somewhat beyond me now. I thought maybe shad from descrption - Sararoga County.

George		20-Sep-2015 00:19
I'm just a beginner at photographing wildflowers. (Started late summer this year) Your photos are fantastic. I have been spending some time in Letchworth and found the Turtlehead this week. Had no idea what it was. Thanks for all of your work.

Melissa		07-Sep-2015 22:20
Thank you for these beautiful pictures. They are indeed quite helpful in narrowing down names. Do continue with this lovely project. :)

Lorelei		29-May-2014 18:41
Very nice photos and layout! Do you live in the Fingerlakes region? I live in Newark and work in Waterloo... have been into id'ing (and foraging for edible) plants ever since I can remember... wondering where you took the pics of the lady's slippers- I know there where there are some in a bog in Newark, but didn't think there were any others...

Gerry Dawes		26-Apr-2014 18:12
Hi, David, What you have identified as touch-me-nots, I have seen identified as jewel weed flowers. Are both correct? Thanks, G.

Gerry Dawes		26-Apr-2014 18:05
Would very much appreciate it if you could help me identify this flower, which is blooming now. https://plus.google.com/photos/+GerryDawes/albums/6006663942083645761/6006663951641777858?pid=6006663951641777858&oid=112779314756438115778 Many thanks.

What are the tall stalky wavy at the top wild plants all over ADK Mtns? they are now going/gone to seed, I collected a number of the large seed pods. almost cottony when opened, small brown seeds . Thanks for any help!!

Thank you for the pics, I was traveling through the Montezuma refuge and noticed few listed here :)

Guest		08-Jun-2013 13:13
Wonderful pictures! This would be great for girlscouts/boyscouts to look up flowers they have seen on hikes or camping!

Bonnie		27-Aug-2012 00:00
26 August 2012- saw a beautiful pink flower at the Montezuma marsh that looked like a hibiscus- but aren't they tropical? It turned out to be a musk Mallow or Hibiscus moscheutos- swamp rose Mallow. Thank you for helping me to identify this beautiful flower. I have a great place to plant them- too bad the wildlife preserve won't allow digging up a few to transplant. Darn.

8/25/12 - driving the ny through way ( rt 90) - it is awash in goldenrod and knotweed. I know that because of this site.

christine clift		30-Jun-2012 00:42
beautiful gallery....i was here trying to find a fluffy pink flower, i happened upon this on the way to work a few days ago and its so beautiful that i just cant stop thinking about it. i am 50 years old and i have never seen this wildflower. now, there is also the fact that we have had two unusual floods here in the past five year. very serious flood, fema etc. i am open to the idea that these flowers are a product of someones garden having been flooded and depositing bulbs or seeds in this roadside area where i spotted this beautiful bright pink fluffy flower...its fantastic!

I live in Upstate NY and last summer I took a pic of this flower, they are all over the place but I can not seem to come up with an actual name?? Wondering if you can help me out....I do not see a pic of this flower here however it looks most like a white version of "your" Musk mallow (Malva moschata) found at the bottom of pg. 6 any help appreciated, thanks

norma assante		24-Aug-2011 18:35

Guest		22-Aug-2011 22:36
Hi, I saw some yellow jewelweed, is that possible? Sidell

Gerry Dawes		12-Aug-2011 15:27
David, Many thanks for this wonderful work. I am trying to identify flowers here in Putnam County and I am a novice at this flora business. Isn't the spotted touch-me-not, also called jewelweed? Can't figure out why it would be labelled a "weed," since it is so beautiful. I prefer your name.

Sid Tierney		12-Aug-2011 04:40
I am a writer who wants to know the exact name for flowers I write about, and this site is quite informative.

From the window of a train, I could see an airy pink flower in the roadbeds this July. Thanks to your beautiful pictures, I could identify it as knapweed. You have a marvelous gift of to convey both the botany and the art of the flowers you photograph! Thank you for sharing these.

lizzy		23-Apr-2010 16:34

Please add the botanical names. The pictures are great, but common names are deceiving.

Gail		08-Sep-2008 15:10
I would like to locate seeds for cardinal flower, dutchman's breeches, knotweed, touch-me-not, turk's cap lily purple fringed orchid, blue flag iris. Does anyone have a source. Additionally, in the southern tier (near Ithaca) I grew up with a flower that my mother called Indian paintbrush, but I cannot find it on any site. Picture listed for that name is not the same. It was 4" tall with a black hairy stem, and was yellow, orange and red. The flower looked like a round paintbrush, I don't remember the leaves. Can anyone help with my two requests.

Michal Leszczynski		09-May-2008 13:09

I was trying to locate the name of a flower I photographed here in NYS 45 min south of Albany. Most sites were slow and tedious. Then I came across yours. I could quickly see a whole bunch and find out mine was a Cranebill. Beautiful shots. Thanks for the wonderful site. I will use it for reference in the future.
