I recently bought a "cinnamon" ginger plant and have been
diligently growing it, (It's still too small to pull a tast yet.) Now I
know cinnamon does not come from ginger (wink) but after looking through an
exoic plant catalog and looking thorugh all my books I can't find any
reference to it. Nor does the nursery have much info on it Do any of you
know anything about ginger enough to hazard a guess as to what it will
taste like?

????? This is a new one on me! As far as I'm aware, ginger-the-spice is
a tropical or near-tropical plant and all the flavor is in the roots, which
take several years to reach harvesting size. What does your plant look like?
Is there any chance it's a variety of scented geranium? Those do come in a
huge and ever increasing array of spice scents..........
