Summary[edit]

Description

Hedychium gardnerianum (Réunion)

English: Introduced flowers, such as this Kahili Ginger, once for its delicate scent, from its native Himalayan mountains to Réunion island, may become terrible invaders that cause much trouble to the vulnerable ecosystems of isolated islands.
Français : L'introduction de plantes, comme ce longose depuis les montagnes de l'Himalaya dont l'espèce est originaire jusque sur l'île de La Réunion, au départ pour son parfum délicat, est à l'origine de phénomènes d'envahissement massifs auxquels les écosystèmes naturels des îles isolées sont particulièrement vulnérables
