Pterostylis curta, commonly known as the blunt greenhood, is a species of orchid found in south-eastern Australia, Lord Howe Island and New Caledonia.
It has a rosette of leaves at its base and a single white and green, forward leaning flower with a brown tip and a twisted labellum.
[2][3][4][5] Pterostylis curta was first described in 1810 by Robert Brown and the description was published in Prodromus Florae Novae Hollandiae et Insulae Van Diemen.
[7] The blunt greenhood is widespread and common in Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria and Tasmania, growing in moist places in heath, scrub, woodland and forest.
The plants require regular watering during their growing period, to be kept dry during dormancy and to be repotted annually.
