Hi, i saw some really interesting plants over there, but the nametags were mostly missing.

I dont think it's a peperomia prostrata, the plant on the pic has leaves 2-3 inches large.
edit: found it!! it's a Rhaphidophora cryptantha: http://www.aroid.org/genera/serveimage.php?key=267

The last one is stylidium debile. The second looks like catopsis berteroniana but I'm not 100% sure.

Those are some tall flower stalks on the Stylidium debile. Why'd you think it was a ping? :O
