On the side of hill across from Black Mtn well off path. I can’t get coordinates and the iPhone app isn’t working so I’ll never find them again. It’s good to know green hoods are in season again. Here’s a code if it helps: Q2HP+64W Latham, Australian Capital Territory

Location seems to look good. Fortunately Pterostylis nutans is fairly common so you will probably find a lot more, even if you can’t find this particular patch again.

Yes, I know they are fairly common but this is my first sighting of the season, so I thought it was worth reporting. :-)
