User's notes

Found during a orchid monitoring walk / search for Mt Majura's Golden Myth on mt majura northwest slope Sunday 25 September. This specimen doesn't have a redish tinge often seen on flower stems of Leopard orchids (which were present in the area). I haven't found the opportunity to go back and check it out later unfortunately.

The Golden Myth would have finished flowering now, but it would be interesting to see what this one looks like. A lot of the Diuris in that part of Mt Majura have greenish stems and the flowers are not as heavily marked as in a normal D. pardina.
