Fushia Ginger Lily
 Alpingera martinica, intergeneric hybridization between Alpinia purpurata and Etlingera elatior was performed and constitutes the first intergeneric cross involving the genera Alpinia and Etlingera. Hybrid seedlings were obtained. They were vigorous with vegetative morphology similar to the maternal parent A. purpurata, but they exhibited characters not previously observed in A. purpurata. They differ from E. elatior in the shape and colour of their inflorescences which are intermediate between the two parents, but it resembles in A. purpurata in having obloid morphology . |
