Plant ID help- possible ginger?

8 years ago
last modified: 8 years ago

I acquired a ton of great plants from a lady moving out of state, and she had several of these gorgeous plants but had no idea what they were. They have large flat elongated leaves with a pink stripe down the center, and these MASSIVE bracts (like 8 inches long, and 4 wide), with little purple lily-like flowers inside. She said they die in winter and come back every spring. I’ve done some Research and think it MIGHT be a Curcuma alismatifolia, Siam tulip or summer tulip... also called “hidden lilies”. I’d like to know for sure so I can best care for these beauties I was lucky enough to score! Thanks for any help!
