Is it about a cyclamen?

Here in this far-off land of wonder and enchantment the vegetation includes the tree nettle, Urtica ferox, which is basically a stinging nettle that's evolved into a small tree and kills people, and tree daisies like Olearia spp. which are indeed daisies that have evolved into small trees and get in the way when you're tramping. And then there are tree orchids which HA HA FOOLED YOU are epiphytes. Though they are not obligate branch-dwellers, and seem to thrive on the forest floor if they end up there when a branch breaks off or a tree falls over or they are brought down by the invidious workings of the "tall orchid syndrome" or "great Kiwi clobbering machine".*

Of the various species of tree orchid, Earina autumnalis is the one in flower at the moment. And very nice it is too. The flowers have a strong aroma rather like toilet freshener, and rather like someone has dropped a whole bottle of vanilla essence; or to put it in terms you'll understand, like a combination of GD gas (Soman), CA gas (Camite) and CN gas (CAP).

Also spotted a pygmy tree orchid (Ichthyostomum pygmaeum) today. This makes me proud enough and I will not get up in the morning for any sergeant, for it is an inconspicuous wee plant with leaves up to 1 cm long growing out of little pseudobulbs like wrinkled dried peas but smaller.

Also of note in the NZ flora is the dirigible cyclamen. In the picture the breeze is blowing one across a bay. The people below in the castle gate are looking rather concerned at the prospect of its roots lodging in the castle walls, for they can widen cracks and do no end of damage to the stonework.

Here's a painting of a dirigible cyclamen by Brent Wong, but I have to say that he's made a bit of a dog's breakfast of it, and it doesn't look very convincing to me.
