Orchids in Black Hill Conservation Park

ORCHIDACEAE

Genoplesium rufum

Genoplesium rufum
a midge-orchid

Similar to Genoplesium rufum, but green instead of red.
The entire plant is about 10cm tall, the flowers are tiny, only a few millimetres across, and the leaves are like scales on the sides of the stem.
