All good shots, and lots of very colourful and interesting flowers. Unfortunately I can't help with ids much, I'm not very good on plants.
I like this flower.

It does look like a Colchicum from the book. I suppose that it will emerge from the soil more in time?
I'm not sure what the orchid is, there doesn't seem to be anything similar in the Mediterranean wildlife book. When I visited the Spanish mountains the plants flowering periods seemed quite strange. Some plants seemed to be flowering later than in Britain while some seemed to be flowering earlier, I suppose the flowering times there must be affected a lot by the latitude and altitude.
