Red Beard Orchid
Very lucky to find this specimen at all. The only one of this pale variant in full flower found during the walk. Stunning!
the green form
This actual plant seen in flower two weeks earlier
Maybe? Or possibly an ivy, (as I initially thought from the glossy robust cotyledon leaf with veins similar to English ivy's), with unusual colouration of true leaf due to poor conditions? NB image 2 shows what appear to be tiny teeth or hairs around the rim of the first true leaf
A recently invasive seedling, left in situ for monitoring re ID, then to be uprooted. Interestingly, just two seedlings here in deep mulch in ornamental garden with monkey apple hedge; the other seedling was Kahili ginger (uprooted in last image)
