Latest Capital City Observations Sydney - Observatory Hill

Growing under a 50/50 tree canopy, mostly angophora, spotted gum and scribbly-bark gum. There is periodic fire in the region, probably every decade or so a good blaze goes through. The only other orchids I can think of in the area are Dendrobium speciosum and Cymbidium suave. There are a handful of terrestrial species growing in more open country. I cant think of what else is relevant.

Heres another specimen that was growing on the same rock. Rather interesting the way its sheltering under the rock edge, I guess its seeking moisture too.

Thank you. Your summers aren't as warm as I had thought:

I guess I won't try it outside here. 109 F = 43C
Current Forecast: Phoenix Arizona

But this should do really well outside all year for orchidophiles in southern California.
