    I love the bloom in the second photo. Is that last closeup the same plant shown from farther back in one of your other posts? They are odd looking but cute!

    thanks-just some extras, chiloglottis is known as the bird orchid, and corybas the helmet orchid. Chiloglottis are actually aussie vagrants and can only vegetatively (not sure on spelling) reproduce. They form large mats and grow well in exotic pine forests. Corybas form large dense mats too and grow well anywhere in the forest.
