Here are 2 entities known as a very variable taxon, #Corybas pictus #Orchidaceae. [Left] A lowland “variant” from Borneo, and [Right] A clone very common in cultivation and likely a highland “variant”. Do you think they are the same? Please let me know what you think 🤔

Back was sore so I went for a forest walk. Ended up hunched over crawling on the pine needles... Pterostylis and Corybas in bloom

During my Saturday walk, I was lucky enough to spot the endangered Fringed-Helmet Orchid, #Corybas fimbriatus!
As you can see from the photos, that's a very #small #orchid!!
A trio of small and strange flowes of corybas or helmet orchids in various stages of development. On the right in the front is the oldest, completely opened flower. On the left, the flower is in the process of opening. In the back, the flower is still closed and growing. The flower of this Corybas pictus has 4 spurs, though on each side.
It's springtime, and it's time for Corybas orchids to bloom!

開花しました。
ピクタスかと思いましたが、花弁内側の白い部分には薄っすら赤い輪のような模様が入り、鳥のエサが餌を求めて口を開けているように見える。更に頭頂部の傘状の弁にはストライプ状の赤い模様が入っている。
