Torch Ginger (Etlingera elatior) flower.  Torch gingers grow naturally in clusters as the plant grows more rhizome, an underground horizontal stem that resembles a tuberous root. They are edible flowers that are a key ingredient in Rojak, a Southeast Asian salad. The unopened flowers are eaten raw, in stir fries, in sauces and in stews. Mature flowers are bright, showy, and long lasting, making them suitable as a cut flower. Mature flowers also attract nectivorous birds and can be used in biodiversity-attracting gardens.
