The "Name that Plant" Game

here is a closer leaf pic. it isnt the exact same sub-species, but I dont think we are being that specific.
In this pic you can see the flowers around the base.
 
I think I got it now. Your first pic had me confused cause of the coloration. Once you put the size down that helped as well.

If I'm right, the root can also be used to flavor foods.
 
There is also a resteraunt in Hyde Park, OH that shares a name with this plant (not that that is all that helpful)
 
I think the plant is Hexastylis, not sure of the species. Maybe arifolia?

I think you were going for this plant?

With this flower?

If not, my apologies.
