Caladenia reptans ssp reptans Little Pink Fairy Orchid Endemic
Even in mid August which is late Winter in this part of the world, there were several small orchids to be found. This one was very common but the photograph is deceptive - it is only a few centimetres tall. In the Eucalypt forest the fallen leaves tend to stop anything but orchids growing.
