Thanks! Yes, it's one my favorite blue-purple flowering plants. It looks more blue than it really is because of my camera.

Does it have a lot of scent ?

No scent. It's not a true ginger.

But pretty, nevertheless :o)

Yes, it is. This one hasn't opened its flower buds yet.

Yes, I will. I just looked up all the photos I've posted of this plant...and they're all of the buds and no open flowers.
