| Thanks Arthur. They're quite common around here. Interesting thing is they're saprophytes, don't photosynthesise but feed on dead organic matter with the assistance of fungus. But the related species, Dipodium ensifolium, I saw in Queensland had leaves and photosynthesised as 'normal'. |

| They are very nice looking. And they are delicate but still seem to be quite prolific. Glad you liked them Jane. |
