Cyanicula - Blue Orchids
Back to Orchids
Cyanicula - the blue orchids, are a group of about ten orchids
previously placed in Caladenia. Recently, C. deformis has been reclassified
and is now known as Pheladenia
deformis. Most specimens have blue flowers - there is one yellow (C. ixioides)
and one white (C. ixioides subsp candida - not pictured here.) With the exception
of C. ixioides, they are widespread across the south-west of Western Australia.
