A tropical bouquet of anthurium and ginger flowers.

I thought I share this with Goy again, I just had to take a shot of this before the lucky person came to collect it today.

Alpinia purpurata is the botanic name to these common ginger flowers Arlene, its the red flower that is used in my name picture box. There are two other types of colours these plants have, some come in white blooms and some in pink. I have the plant in one of my earlier pics which has some interesting shared information on the plant itself:-)
