User's notes

Didn't think much of this Dipodium earlier when I snapped some photos of it, apart from how pretty it was with its pale green stem, but have just noticed that it also has green pedicels, a feature which I have not seen on any of the 100+ other Dipodium roseum currently flowering or just finished locally. Intriguing.

I have seen D. roseum with a green stem, although that plant had white flowers.

@MattM I've seen heaps with green stems, but none with green pedicels! They're usually pink right up to the stem.
