Description

Flower not fully open, however going with Chiloglottis trilabra because of its common names - Tall Wasp Orchid (because the plants were 150mm high, taller than most species around here) and Long Clubbed Wasp Orchid (because the clubs on the laterals were particularly long). The dark colour of the labellum, overall red colour of the plant, and flowering time also fits C. trilabra. Hundreds of plants regrowing after fire mid-December 2019, however only two found in flower.
