Ornamental Coral Ginger Lilies in Bloom - Sarah Duke Garden, Durham, NC


One of my favorite flowers in a garden this time of year is the Ornamental Ginger Lily. The orginal cultivar I had in my garden was white but it blooms more in September. The blossoms look more like the one one on the left.  I captured 2 different cultivars at Sarah Duke Garden on Sunday 8/5/2018 and liked the lighting which was more to the side and back.  I was using my 200mm lens on the Sony a700. Minor editing in PSE 15.  This blog has more cultivar images and information about the ginger lilies.  https://www.plantdelights.com/blogs/articles/ginger-plant-lily-variegated-hedychium-lilies
