User's notes
I have located over 30 sun orchids in several locations in the Dryandra Street Woodland. None are T. carnea which was last recorded in DSW over three decades ago.
Some of the current sun orchids are isolated singles. Others are in tight groups. As I get better images I will load the other groups into Nature Map.

It always helps to have pictures of the whole plant, not just bits, to get an idea of number of flowers, length of leaves and general appearance.
