I think this is Pterostylis grandiflora. I didn’t know they could flower this early (literature says May to Aug). You can see the mature plants have narrow leaves, while the young ones are rosettes with heart-shaped leaves.

Rimacola elliptica is a sandstone cliff dwelling orchid endemic to the Blue Mountains and northern Sydney region. I used to think the flowering season for it is Nov to Dec, then I found this on 16/04/22.
