Colebrook Wild Flowers with Latin Names Every reference book on flora or fauna that I have ever seen deals with an area much greater than any specific spot such as Colebrook, which has a certain elevation, a certain latitude and longitude and has a unique set of introduced plants or animals; consequently, when something new to your eye makes its appearance, it can be very frustrating when, after an extensive search, nothing looking remotely like your newfound object can be found. Here, at least, is a list of names, along with their Latin names, of the flowers that I have personally seen in Colebrook. There is no doubt that many more exist, but it is at least a start.
