About
Diuris brumalis, commonly known as the winter donkey orchid, is a species of orchid that is endemic to the south-west of Western Australia. It is one of the first species of donkey orchid to flower in Western Australia each year and its flowers have been shown to attract the same insects that pollinate other species, but without offering a food reward.

How to use it
The winter donkey orchid is primarily valued for its ecological role, particularly in attracting pollinators. By drawing in insects, it supports the reproductive processes of various plants in its habitat. This makes it an important species for maintaining biodiversity in the ecosystems of Western Australia.
