Diuris magnifica

[Mafate]

Hello all, here is Diuris magnifica, from Western Australia, in bloom at the moment.

Have a nice Sunday.









And finally, a family photo with, from left to right, Diuris orientis, Diuris jonesii, and Diuris magnifica. I hope to add some new species in the coming years.

Thank you. No fragrance unfortunately. I've never really paid attention to the flowering time, but I'd say the plant stays in bloom for about 3 weeks. The flowers open one after the other, but there is a point where they are all open at the same time.
