Welcome!
My name is Nelson DeBarros, and I am a vegetation ecologist based in northern Virginia. Since moving to the region in 2017, I have been documenting and photographing local plant species and natural communities.
This website is a work in progress, but please explore current features including sections on the Carex of Fairfax County, locally rare plant species, and a selection of my illustrations. More content will be added over time – stay tuned!
