Thrilled to find these growing on our bush block. As the block is mostly Snow Gums (E pauciflora), which can't withstand fire, it's greatly changed after the 2020 bushfire burned through 95% of the land. Still, we are finding more orchids than before, and this widespread but uncommon species is very exciting!
