Hedychium sp for ID from Uttarakhand: 3 images.
These images were sent to me by someone for identification. I suspect these are Hedychium coccineum. Please suggest the correct ID.
These images are from Bageshwar district of Uttarakhand, shot at about 1700m elevation.

I did not find distribution for Uttarakhand but looks a bit closer.

I agree with you … for ID,

Hedychium coccineum

HEDYCHIUM AURANTIACUM:
If you have visited Arunachal Pradesh you must have seen the flowers of the attached image on the road side. In fact there are so many types of Hedychium Sp at that place. Hedychium aurantiacum grows in gardens at Tezpur (Assam). It is blooming in our garden at Cooch Behar at present.

I collected this plant from Tezpur (Assam), and it is doing well at this place. Arunachal Pradesh has got quite a number of wild variety of Hedychium. Brig. S N Chatterjee collected quite a number from Arunachal and planted those at his house at Tezpur.
