Costus vinosus - correct id???
21 years ago
I received a rhizome from Mark Collins that was/is supposed to be C. vinosus. According to Dave Skinner's website C. vinosus has cupped ligules, mine does not.
Here are pic's of the first plant, it is getting filtered sunlight and seems to be losing the dark color in the leaves as well as the red underside.

This is a small clone of the first plant and is much darker and redder.

Is this C. vinosus?
