There are two species of Leptorhynchos locally. I need a sideways on closeup of a flower, to be absolutely certain it is actually Leptorhynchos, plus a closeup showing the full length of a stem.

I'm very familiar with both species in the field and the relatively low height and limited flowering stems indicates squamatus
