I am unsure if this is an orchid. I took a photo to check what it might be. The coordinates are approximate only.

I reckon the third image and possibly the large plant in the second image are Hymenochilus. They also occur widespread around that area.

Yes, thanks. I have seen Hymenochilus there before but had not recalled the rosette. The large plant when magnified suggests the emergence of a flower.
