A First : 3 Hyacinth Orchid Types : My Actifit Report Card: December 11 2021
The day woke up grey - grey all day was the forecast but no rain expected. I was thinking about a ride. Decided to combine a catch up of yesterday's rain affected walk and a visit to the nursery to buy some stuff for vege garden.
Kookaburra does like my gardening work - frees the worms for breakfast
Bromeliad flowering - a freebie planted out last year. First time to flower. Just stunning.
Drove to and parked up at Garrigal NP to walk Cascades Trail
Large tongue orchid in a new spot
Flower starts to flatten out after pollinating
I spied a bonnet orchid spike just below the track. That got me looking below and saw this mushroom - red suede
View from the underside
Down below were a few more bonnet orchids buds. Never seen this before - swarming ants
and then this bud
Variegated hyacinth orchid - and as I swiveled around there was a flower
Dipodium variegatum - first time seen on this track
The sight of a bonnet orchid bud got me all that - bonus time
Found this hyacinth orchid right next to the track in a known spot - ID is a test. Petals are not recurved and the calli on labellum are on bottom third - blotched hyacinth orchid
Dipodium punctatum - first for the year and first for this track
This looks like a montage but it is what I saw - punctatum on the edge of the track and a flash of pink below
I did find a way to get below - two things to note. Petals are recurved. Calli on labellum go past one thirds
Rose hyacinth orchid - first time on this track - dipodium roseum
Kept going down the track below where I last walked - bonnet orchids in a new spot
Cryptostylis erecta and in the same spot another cryptostylis
Cryptostylis subulata in a new location
Always nice to find a 2nd plant - variegated hyacinth orchid
Dipodium variegatum right on track edge
This is a known location for a bonnet orchid though first time seeing one open - spider has made a home.
That was a win walk - 5 orchids open and 3 hyacinth orchids. This is the first time I have seen all three in one place on one day.
Dropped into local nursery to buy some veges and some compost.
Step one at home was to make up a vege bed with new compost and make up a bug screen contraption. Also raked up a lot of bark in the back lawn
Dinner: Pizza - not done that for a while
