Significant sighting

Tapirlord noted:

20 Nov 2023

New location for this cryptic, beautiful and now endangered little mountain herb. It seems evident that populations are reducing significantly post fire.

User's notes

And that is a fairly generous estimate, I imagine the population here would’ve been larger before the alpine ash regen
