Ornamental Gingers are my favourite plants, there's such a variety of
foliage and flowers.

As an aside, up until recently a fair percentage of the world's ginger was
grown in the area where I live. The local ginger factory boasts it produced
the world's finest ginger.

Thanks - those products have never come my way, but I daresay their
innovations are behind the processed ginger products I do use.
