I spotted this at Thung Salaeng Luang National Park. I know this is a ground ginger flower but there was no foliage around. Just this flower popping up out of the ground.

This website - www.natureloveyou.sg has a great catalogue of plants that I'm just beginning to work through for some of my idents. Think you may find it useful too : )
