Please check all 3 images which are of different plants just in case fuscata is present

Image 3 definitely C. carnea, Image 2 probably the same. Image 1 doesn't look right for C. carnea in bud.

If image 1 is likely to be something else, should I submit it separately? Is it an orchid?

Yes I would split them, in fact I meant to suggest that. It may be C. carnea, the stem looks right, but the buds are very contorted.
