Wild Flowers of Hong Kong

I came across many wild flowers during my walks in the wooded parts of Hong Kong last month. Unfortunately, I do not know their names. The pink flower above grows in a shrub or small tree.
This ginger is seen in all parts of the Peak.
This bottle brush like flower was blooming on a tree.
This curious flower with elongated petals looked like a spider. It grows on a shrub.
The white daisies dotted the ground in many places.
I hope you enjoyed looking at these unusual wild flowers.
My thanks to Santilli, Denise, Pupo and Sandy Carlson for hosting Today's Flowers.

  2. Hong King's flora really interests me since it's not quite as tropical as other "tropical" places. A lot of cold hardy plants come from that area! I'd love to know what king of ginger that is... looks like some kind of alpinia!

  23. Sterculia lanceolata - first photo of pink flowers - significant due to the bright orange seed pod that follows. Your bottlebrush flower - Itea chinesnsis - quite common - shrub to small tree. Your spider like flower is the liana - sarmentose shrub known by the common name Goat Horns - Strophanthus divericatus. The daisy like flower - last - is Bidens alba. It's seeds are a curse when bush walking since they will impregnate any kind of material and become a chore to remove. Hope that helps. I'm on Facebook BTW Andre Jagger in Hong Kong.
