User's notes

I revisited this Orchid again today but it may be too early to see any difference. I note the Field Guide has D. reflexum and not D. revolutum but CNM has D. revolutum and not reflexum.

The current taxonomic view is that the local material is D. revolutum. D. reflexum more commonly found towards the coast.

D revolutum - if it doesn't open further it may be a deformed individual perhaps, but can't be anything else. Small possibility it could be a hybrid with something else, I guess, but that doesn't seem likely to me.
