Wow, Sugar_fl, this looks pretty, very different. Is it a bulb? Tell me about it.

Lenjo, It is next door to me. I did a search on it for her & seems it is in the ginger family. It is a rhizome (A horizontal, usually underground stem that often sends out roots and shoots from its nodes. Also called rootstalk, rootstock)

I love it! Do you know how long the flower last, and does it rebloom?
