Caladenia carnea var. minor is a rare and striking orchid native to the southeastern regions of Australia. This variant of the spider orchid is known for its elegant, pinkish-white flowers that bloom in spring. It thrives in moist, shaded environments such as forest floors and rocky outcrops. Due to habitat loss and environmental changes, it faces increasing threats to its survival. Conservation efforts are crucial to ensure its continued existence in the wild.
