According to one expert, barely covering the stalks of bamboo and other grasses will be enough to successfully propagate this black grass. Only time will tell.

I have to learn more about this plant. It's rather the most beautiful ginger ever or not really a ginger at all. I'm not sure if it's edible or if no one has ever tried to eat it. For all I know, it could be the world's most underused super food.
This beauty is living at the Nature Coast Botanical Gardens.
While traveling around the neighborhood in my new role in healthcare, I happened upon a lovely place in Hernando Beach. Chatted with the owner, she told me that she had ðŸ¥, figs, an many other edibles right there in front yard. She said she enjoyed lemongrass and cranberry 🌺, made into tea or in salad, respectively. I admired her Turks cap hibiscus, shampoo/pinecone ginger, ti plants, and cranberry hibiscus, which are a few of my favorite plants. She even told me that cranberry hibiscus roots easily from cuttings - I am going to have to try it! This photo is from her front yard from the porch, and it does her digs no justice.
