Hiking

The ginger lily (Hedychium gardnerianum), with its bright yellow blossoms and red stamens, stands out against the lush green of the slopes. It often lines paths in dense stands, spreading a subtle, sweet fragrance. Although beautiful, it is considered an invasive species – a photogenic, but ecologically problematic, highlight along the roadside.
