Diuris pardina, commonly known as the leopard orchid or leopard doubletail is a species of orchid which is endemic to south-eastern Australia. It has two or three grass-like leaves and up to ten yellow flowers with reddish-brown marks and blotches. Diuris pardina is a tuberous, perennial herb with two or three linear leaves 100–300 mm (4–10 in) long, 4–6 mm (0.2–0.2 in) wide and folded lengthwise. Flowering occurs from August to October. Diuris pardina was first formally described in 1840 by John Lindley and the description was published in his book, The Genera and Species of Orchidaceous Plants. The specific epithet (pardina) is derived from the Ancient Greek word pardos meaning "leopard". The leopard orchid is found in New South Wales, the Australian Capital Territory, Victoria, South Australia and Tasmania. It grows in well-drained soils in heath and forest and there is considerable variation in the colouration of the flowers. In New South Wales in occurs south from Mudgee and in Victoria it is widespread and common in the southern half of the state. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diuris_pardina
Thelymitra rubra, commonly called the salmon sun orchid, is a species of orchid endemic to southeastern Australia. A slender species, about 1 foot high. Leaf linear, hardly 5 inches. Bracts very narrow, stems clasping. Flowers one or two, bright red. Petals and sepals ovate-acute, about 5 lines. Column about 3 lines, produced above and behind the anther, but not hooded, slightly denticulate between the lateral appendages. Lateral appendages lanceolate, produced horizontally beyond the anther almost to a point, not ciliate, but covered on both sides densely with rugose glands. Anther obtuse, continuing to enclose the pollen masses behind the stigma, but produced over it. This species is closely related to T. carnea, but the flowers are much larger and of a brighter colour. It opens constantly, is evidently not so absolutely self-fertilising, and is easily distinguished by the large and rugose lateral appendages of the column. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thelymitra_rubra
Caladenia tentaculata, commonly known as the eastern mantis orchid, large green-comb, green comb or fringed spider orchid is a plant in the orchid family Orchidaceae and is endemic to south-eastern Australia.

Up to three green flowers with red stripes and 60-100 mm across are borne on a spike 150-500 mm tall. The sepals have brown or yellow, club-like glandular tips 5-12 mm long. The dorsal sepal curves forward and is 60-80 mm long and 2-4 mm wide. The lateral sepals are 60-80 mm long, 4-5 mm wide and are turned downward, nearly parallel to each other but with the tips turning to horizontal or slightly upwards, then often drooping at their ends. The petals are 40-50 mm long, 2-3 mm wide and turned downwards. The labellum is green with a white central area and a dark red tip, and is 16-20 mm long and 20-25 mm wide. Each side of the labellum has between five and eight thin green teeth up to 8 mm long and the tip is curved downwards. There are four crowded rows of dark red, club-shaped calli up to 2 mm long in the centre of the labellum. Flowering occurs from September to December. The eastern mantis orchid is widespread through Victoria, eastern New South Wales and south-eastern South Australia, growing in heath, woodland and forest. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caladenia_tentaculata
