Hi.
Welcome to my blog.
A few days ago I used a photo of this flower in one of my posts, at that time I did it because I loved the color and the shape of the petals of it, I thought it was a good choice to make my post look good. However, at that time I had no idea what kind of flower it was and today I would like to share some information about it.
Alpinia purpurata, red ginger, also called ostrich plume and pink cone ginger, are native Malaysian plants with showy flowers on long brightly colored red bracts. They look like the bloom, but the true flower is the small white flower on top. Source
I did not observe any white flowers on this plant at the time the photos were taken, however, the shape of the leaves and the red bulb are identical to those of the red ginger plant, so I do not doubt that it is. I will keep an eye out when I'm around this place again and maybe I'll be lucky enough to take a photo of the white flower that Wikipedia writes about.
Have you seen this flower before?
Thank you so much for stopping by.
With love,
Rima.

Hola.
Bienvenidos a mi blog.
Hace unos días utilicé una foto de esta flor en uno de mis posts, en ese momento lo hice porque me encantó el color y la forma de los pétalos de la misma, pensé que era una buena opción para que mi post quedara bien. Sin embargo, en ese momento no tenía ni idea de qué tipo de flor era y hoy me gustaría compartir algo de información sobre ella.
La Alpinia purpurata, jengibre rojo, también llamada penacho de avestruz y jengibre de cono rosa, son plantas nativas de Malasia con vistosas flores en largas brácteas de color rojo brillante. Parecen la floración, pero la verdadera flor es la pequeña flor blanca de la parte superior. Fuente
No observé ninguna flor blanca en esta planta en el momento en que se tomaron las fotos, sin embargo, la forma de las hojas y el bulbo rojo son idénticos a los de la planta de jengibre rojo, por lo que no dudo que lo sea. Estaré atento cuando vuelva a estar por este lugar y quizás tenga la suerte de tomar una foto de la flor blanca de la que escribe Wikipedia.
¿Has visto esta flor antes?
Muchas gracias por pasar por aquí.
Con cariño,
Rima.
