Thanks for posting! I am impressed! For how long did you sit still and wait for the polinator?

Cryptostylis Emit pheromones that attract the male wasp(Harmless),this leads him to believe that he is going to get lucky. This must be intensely strong as the only time I ever see these wasps are when the Cryptostylis are in flower consequently when the flowers are open the wasps are every where.
