User's notes

This area was burned last February for fuel reduction. Very little vegetation has reappeared so far. No orchids this year. This species was one of the few in flower.

Scraggy and atypical but there is nothing else it could be.

All the Stackhousia that grow around Hanging rock are like this. I found some last year before the area was burned and they were just the same.
