Pterostylis concinna wild #4292 (approximately 25 seedlings per flask).

The Species: Found in Australia on the southeast coast and in Tasmania where it grows as a terretrial in colonies. The inflorescence comes from an active rosette. The flowers are about 1/2" tall

Culture: It is a cool growing species in the winter (I grow it with 50F minimums) and takes warmer temperatures in the spring through fall. It is deciduous in the summer and must have greatly reduced watering for a short time when the leaves die back until it begins to sprout. During the growing season it needs ample water and dilute fertilizer. Give it bright light in the winter so the spikes are shorter and stand up well.
