Winter spider orchid
Description:
Caladenia drummondii The "Winter spider orchid" is one of the first spider orchids found flowering from late autumn to winter - May to June. It is a small orchid 30-100 mm high and can be difficult to see.The calli on the labellum had droplets on them. I wonder if it was nectar or fluid containing pheromones to attract insects?
