Well, I won't be much help at this, but I know one thing that would probably help others help you: what is your location? Also, if you have a digital camera and can upload pictures, that would be very helpful!

Im sorry if this is a bit late and forgive my ignorance but are we talking north wilts UK? If we are the pyramid shaped one is probabley pyramidal orchid (anacamptis pyramidalis) the second one im not quite sure about. The third one could be a bee orchid (ophrys apifera) but i wouldnt know for sure unless i see a photo. Your lucky though, i have one single bee orchid growing in the garden, ive never seen any of the other species.
