Topping was particularly interested in ferns and fern allies. In addition to collecting in the Philippines, he also collected in East and South Asia, and in Borneo with Joseph and Mary Strong Clemens. Topping worked with the American Red Cross in Siberia after the First World War. After retiring in 1922 he moved to Hawaii, where he spent the rest of his life.
