The country's leading botanist, Professor Asa Gray of Harvard College, placed a large order for her works of Colorado flowers. There were flowers that grew above the timberline on Pikes Peak. There were also flowers that were different than the varieties in the eastern part of the country, such as: the daisy, anemone, and harebell. With Susan Dunbar, she identified all the state's wildflowers. She had the largest collection of works of Colorado flowers in the country.
