WA Orchid Society


We were privileged to have people from the WA Orchid Society visit our block recently in search of interesting orchids. Each year they scour areas of bushland that have had a fire go through during the summer months as it creates the right conditions for rare orchids to bloom.

Above is a rabbit orchid - we have not seen on our block before. It is tiny and may have been there but we were unaware of their presence.

This a Blue China Orchid.
