is R. purpurea the most vigorous species?
 my March seedlings are already 20 cm high! but they started slowly...

on the other hand, a species whose label I've lost (but fortunately you'll be there when it flowers ;D) sown last year is still only 7 cm high.
Véronique, in our garden R. purpurea is indeed the most vigorous specie.

Herman.

Do you grow any other hardy members of Zingiiberaceae?
