Spotting

Description:

flowering low to the ground, ginger family, foliage ginger like

Habitat:

tropical rainforest

Notes:

I spotted this flower just off the trail in Tawau hills park. Sorry, just this one photo, as it was hard to get a clear shot of it. Photos of the foliage wouldn't help too much anyway as many species of the ginger family have a similar habit.

It is a sweet book, you should get them to order it.

What!? There is a Gingers of Borneo book too?
I really need to force the bookstores here to get them!

Yeah, it would probably help. Get it! Even better is the newly released Gingers of Borneo. I got to browse through it at Craig's place. Was able to get a few ID's from it.

I found a guide book to the gingers of Sarawak!
Unfortunately, there is only one of it left in the bookshop.
I really need to save enough money to purchase it before it goes missing.
Though it focuses on the gingers of Sarawak, I am sure it can help in identifying many species from Tawau Hills.
