has six species of helmet-orchids (Corybas). These
small plants are quite conspicuous. They have a single broad
leaf that is held flat to the ground (though sometimes a
little above it). The flowers are unmistakeable - they are
on short stalks (often only about 1cm) and the upper sepal
forms a large, helmet-shaped hood that is usually dark
coloured (often reddish). |
