What reading level is The Prairie in Vermilion County book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Orchid Hill contains -flat uplands and steep, northeast facing slopes similar in topography to those of Wind-fall Prairie. They are not along the river, but rise above partly forested bottomland.
Orchid Hill also has seep springs and seepage areas, but is best known for its outstanding collection of native orchids. A large colony of Yellow Ladies'-slipper grows here, as well as Twayblade Orchid, Late Coral-root, and the Long-bracted Orchid. The latter two species are in a habitat considered unu...sual for their growth requirements. The Coral-root was unknown to Illinois' southeastern drainage system before its discovery at Orchid Hill. This site is the southern-most locality in the state for the Long-bracted Orchid, which generally grows in more northern climates.
The woods and bluffs of Orchid Hill comprise an area of about 50 acres. In 1970, the area contained the largest stand of Birdfoot Violet that we know of in Vermilion County, as well as Indian Paintbrush, Bastard Toadflax, and other unusual prairie species.
