Caladenia radiata

Back to Caladenia

Caladenia radiata is a spectacular late-flowering orchid. It is unique in the way it holds its petals angling down and it has a distinctive labellum with straight, outward spreading fringes. The way the petals and labellum fringes radiate from a central point gives rise to the scientific and common names.
