User's notes
Accidentally found this patch when driving to the Chiloglottis patch to see if any other species grew alongside the C aff jeansii. There happened to be a scary-looking fella on a motorbike there, so I kept driving and found a little meadow a short way up the road, full of butterflies, and as it turns out, orchids! Heaps of buds, there will be hundreds in a few days to a week.
