Photo by Graeme W. The Fringed Leek Orchid, Prasophyllum fimbria which can be common in the general southwest of WA area but usually only flowers after fire. These I found with the new population of Island Point Spider Orchid in an area that has not been burnt for years - sometimes the unexpected happens.

Photo by Graeme W. An unusual one in that it should only flower after summer fire but there has been no fire where I found this. Prasophyllum hians, the Yawning Leek Orchid. Can be common after summer fire throughout the south west of WA.
