Large colony. Possibly interspersed with C ustulata or hybrids - Lachlan looking into it, but confident at least some are C dimorpha.

Agree they look like good candidates for C.dimorpha, It is known from out this way. Not sure if C.ustulata is also in the area?

@Tapirlord me neither, but some of the flowers are showing serrations, rather than teeth, at the midlobe, or a combination of the two. Lachlan is travelling at the moment but had a quick look and agreed that those ones were odd - he said he'll have a better look when he's home. The Flat is kind of the home of funky orchids 😅
