Collection
Across the Québec landscape, Bénédicte sets out — GPS coordinates and vials in hand — in search of rare and boreal native orchid species. In collaboration with university botany departments, she consults key reference works such as the Louis-Marie and Marie-Victorin herbaria, which guide her expeditions through forests and peatlands in hopes of finding a specimen in bloom. Only when a flower is fully open, and under authorized conditions, can a respectful harvest take place. Through this thoughtful and meticulous process, the collection pays tribute to the Nordic biodiversity of our region — to its striking beauty, its delicate fragility, and its vital need for protection.
