Yes, MattM. Images 2 and 3 are of one that had fallen to the ground because of a bent stem. One of the spent flowers was opened and it had spots. I was surprised to see these sun orchids - seems quite early to me.

A lot of orchids have started flowering early this year, likely the result of a warm winter followed by an early spring.
