This deciduous terrestrial grows in heathland around Brisbane.
It has a single hairy leaf with a flower stem to 15cm with a single
violet flower 25mm across. The labellum is small with white base and dark
violet tip.
The other orchid which can be confused with this orchid is Glossodia
major which has a much larger labellum with a yellow callus at the base of the labellum.
Caladenias also look superficially similar and can be easily separated
by their long narrow leaves less than 3mm wide.
