In spring and summer it has up to sixty pale to dark pink flowers with a few darker spots and streaks near the tips, on a tall flowering stem. DescriptionDipodium elegantulum is a tuberous, perennial, saprophytic herb. Between August and December it produces a flowering stem {{convert|500-800|mm|in|sigfig=2|abbr=on}} tall bearing between twenty and sixty flowers. The flowers are pale to dark pink with a few darker spots and streaks near the tips and {{convert|20-25|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} wide. The dorsal sepal is linear to lance-shaped, {{convert|14-17|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long, {{convert|3-4|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} wide and the lateral sepals are a similar shape but slightly longer and narrower. The petals are a similar shape but slightly curved, {{convert|13-15|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long, about {{convert|3|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}}, free from each other and the sepals.
