I did not realise that the spice turmeric had such a lovely flower. I had added the yellow powder to various indian dishes and quite like the taste. I was surprised when our flower store was selling them and even bought one myself. They grow from tubers and mine is now reduced to a few leaves. Perhaps I might get a flower again next Summer.
All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain!

Retired and Enjoying Every Minute of It
I am Ahmed Abdi, a Wordpress blogger and storyteller who searches for stories that inspire people. I love writing because it’s a reflection of how I perceive the world around me. Lost in a world of endless chaos in my childhood, Unforgettable moments of tragedy and triumphs taught me the art of storytelling where I found myself through letter writing and then turned into stories but then sadly had lost everything I wrote for years. In 2018, I decided to create a Wordpress blog site that would allow me to store and retrieve every piece. Stories from my community, city and people are what make my writing so interesting and inspiring! I’m a tea lover so a cup of tea sometimes makes my blog.

Pretty cool. The ginger we grow as an ornamental has a really excellent and fragrant flowers too, but the roots are not as good as the culinary ginger.

I know ginger is something similar. I buy ginger now and again in the supermarket, and might try growing a root once to see what happens.

They are very pretty. Now I am left with a few leaves, but will keep an eye on it, perhaps it might regrow next year.

And what a beautiful flower it is — I, too, didn’t realize that turmeric had such a lovely purple flower!

I was also surprised when I read the label in the store. I never thought that this spice had such a lovely flower.
