Ok I might be rose nut but I do have other interests as well. Years ago when living in Qld I collected this up around the Kingaroy area, its getting better and better as it ages. I forget what Native dendrobium this is , but how could you not like it.

Native orchids are quite nice. We have a few in our trees. The small ones are quite delicate but then you get the King Orchid which can have flower stems nearly a metre long.

It’s a beauty, Warren! You say its getting better as it ages, how old is it and would it grow bigger in the ground?

Jac this orchid I found around 30 yrs ago growing on top of rocks, its at maximum growth now. They are normally found growing in crevices with leaf humus feeding them.

If anyone could help me out here, this plant grows similar to an iris but the flowers are something else. Does anyone know what this is.
