An unknown tropical delight

Cairns Botanic Gardens, FNQ

Does anyone recognise what this flower is? I have taken a second shot which shows
more of the leaves which appear and will show that one tomorrow or at some later
date.

Thanks to Coleen, she has identified this flower, it is from the Shell Ginger, Light galangal, Pink porcelain lily, Shell flower as per Google!


other sizes: small medium large original auto
