Really nice! This flower of Alpinia purpurata.
In Barcelona we have plants of the same family (Zingiberaceae)named Hedychium grardnerianum, make the white flower and the leaves appear.
Thanks Gena, for sharing these beautiful plants you have in South Africa
Have a nice day.
This lovely ruby flower is a bold red, and stands out so wonderfully in the forest sea of green. A flower - and photograph - of distinction and beauty...
This is s beautiful lily. I love that it's so bright; I crave color now.
Hello Gattina - no lilies come in all sorts of colours from white to deep vivid colours!!!
thanks for the visit
Hi Xavi!! thanks so much for the info - I know it's not indigenous to South Africa and not common to Johannesburg either, so was difficult to identify!!!
