Stace, this is so pretty, what is the hardiness zone?

BTW, the two ginger rhizomes you sent me are growing, no bloom yet but they just sat there forever it seems, but now I see lots of growth. We have had a hot summer so maybe this is what they will need.Joann

Hi Joann, I wonder if those gingers are really EEs?? I only have a few gingers but I have tons of EEs that I share with folks :) This plant is a tropical Z9-11 but I hear it's easy to root...just not by me I'm afraid Hehehe

I thought they were gingers, one was labeled curcuma cordata and the other was kaemferia rotunda. They looked like rhizomes and not bulbs. I have done an EE once and they are big round bulbous roots.

LOL Joanne, then not from me!

Really great photo of a very interesting plant.
