Patagonian flora is all about the small details

Someone said this is a tiny orchid.

Torres del Paine contains 11 different ecozones, according to a guide we met along the way. It makes for interesting and varied flora. Here are a few examples for your enjoyment. Almost all have one thing in common: they are so small.


These flaming red and orange flowers grow on mounds of
bushes that look rather sparse without them.



Lovely aren´t they? We saw plenty of dandelions and
butter cups and then some that are similar to
flowers up north but aren´t the same.

These were everywhere, almost.
Reminiscent of cranberries.




Despite its smallness, this gorgeous
 flower packs in a lot of beauty.
