Given that the orchid is listed as critically endangered it is imperative that all levels of government and council cooperate to try and secure the purchase of the land. I have been working with Maroondah's environment groups to raise the profile of the orchid and to demonstrate its significance to council and government. Thanks, Alex Dear Peter,
