The Challenge

Welcome to the first challenge of the Native Australian Orchids Group!

A big thank you to everyone who has joined our group, added their beautiful orchid pics & shared info in our forum! So far we have 47 members & 129 beautiful images – that’s Fantastic!

Judging / Voting Criteria

Only images of Aust. Native Orchids are accepted in this challange.

Please base your votes on the photographic representation of the orchid – ie sharp well focused images, not out of focus or blurry.

Rewards & Prizes

The winner will be the avatar for the month of October!

Additional Information

Greenhoods, while perhaps not the prettiest of orchids, are one of the most prolific! And one of the first of ‘the season’ to flower, so it seemed like a good place to start our first challange!
