These small clinging rock orchids are a joy to come across, but it is frightening to think how quickly climate change is altering the environments in which they can survive.
A CSIRO study of coastal orchids provided a red flag to the possibility of change back in 2017, and provides interesting insights into the survival of these amazing plants.
I was surprised by the apparent number of these - but then it hot me that they only colonized the one face of each rock - they are so sensitive to climate.
So delicate and perfectly formed.
