I was wondering when we would see a sighting of this species. I've never seen it in the wild myself, but grow it at home and it is a pleasure when it flowers.

They are very cute - can see why they're called Hare Orchids with those long "ears" :)

These orchids are commonly referred to as Rabbit Orchids, Hare Orchids (Leporella fimbriata) are different.

That’s a good point @sarraj, I think we have Leporella in our system as the “hare orchid” anyhow
