Australian Flowers

I was looking through some photos from my visit to North Queensland earlier this year, and found the photos I took of some Australian plants and flowers. I know that the first one is a Hibiscus flower but I can't seem to find the names of the others, sadly. Since my final design is producing a floral effect, I thought these might give some inspiration.
 

All these flowers are so different, and each have unique patterns and textures in them, which could help with my final piece. For example, the Hibiscus at the top has a pleated texture, not too dissimilar to some of Richard Sweeney's work. They all have symmetrical characteristics too, which can be found in my final designs for my sculpture.
