Frankie Laney on Aug 02, 2013Does it spread on it's own and does it have a fragrance? It has a similar leaf shape to the ground orchid but I'm pretty sure that's not it. Interesting, the bloom has an orchid look. I'll be following to see what other comments are made here.Helpful Reply

Douglas Hunt on Aug 03, 2013Robin is correct. I believe your plant is Alpinia galanga. There is a photo here that looks just like it: http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/showimage/116099/#bHelpful Reply
