G'day, you may need to edit this sighting as it hasn't recorded the GPS properly, I'm pretty sure that its not from the NT

This orchid is what is referred to as Naturalised Orchid, which is a polite way for saying it is an introduced species from South America or a garden escapee. While it is pretty it is not a native species.
