SOLVED: More detailed hint for the "Orchadae"?

[Nice to Have]

http://www.imagebanana.com/view/23litjdt/note.png I only found this note so far regarding that plant, and I already have uncovered the map for the most part. Is there a more detailed hint somewhere? Or how is one supposed to find this plant?

It's the 2. ingredient for Agent Y; already got the Algae.

By the time you find the algae you should have found an note about the "giant bloom" which I think is another name for the orchadae. I haven't actually found it yet but the picture shows a large blue/purple flower with very open petals.

Hope that helps!

Thanks! No, the giant bloom is for the Endurance emphasis drug[miasmata.wikia.com].
I already know where the Rainbow Orchid is to be found, from that wiki. But I want to find the hint first, if there's any (otherwise it feels like cheating).

But perhaps there isn't another hint; and you're supposed to find it solely by exploring?!

Alright, I found another, more detailed hint!

This was the hardest plant for one of the agents to find for me. After I found all the others I had to explore about half of the map until I found the area it was located in. I agee there needs to be another hint towards its location closer to some of the other agents.

Thread necromancy!

There is actually another note entry for the Orchadae buried in the game's files that can't be found anywhere in game:

From: Cornelius
To: Dr. Sanchez
Subject: Helius-Orchadae Extracts

Harlo,

I hope this finds you well. I have send to you three vials of extract from a new species of flower we have classified as Helius-Orchadae. The flower appears to have properties of an anti-toxin, though I have yet to synthesize it into a form that is suitable for out purposes.

This is an elusive flower, indeed. We've encountered them in a region north of our Polaris outpost, in close proximity to the bamboo forest.

But there IS another hint, as I wrote in #3.
I'd make a screenshot, but my savegame is gone unfortunately. :-(

DarkStarSword, I just found that hint. It was in one of the huts in the Polaris area.

Are you sure you aren't thinking of the "A Region Map for the Orchadae-Helius" note, which features a letter from Edric Kelvin to Cornelius on the left and a map on the right? The note I mentioned does not include a map at all and is addressed to Harlo Sanchez from Cornelius (it's also creased as though it was folded into thirds).

That note isn't listed in any of the game's instance nodes, so there is no way to find it in game - unless you have a different version of the game? Are you on the Steam version or the GOG version?

Yeh nevermind my bad. It was the one with the map.
