Curcuma but which one?

16 years ago

Need to identify this Curcuma (ginger family). I think it might be the ornata but I am not sure. Flowers 1st around late April early May (in Mandeville, Louisiana). White flowers with pink edges and yellow flowers below. Leaves are big with dark red middle vein. Plant reaches about 5 feet. Growing in full sun.

Sounds like Ornata to me. Do the flowers appear after the leaves or before the leaves?
