Description

Alpinia zerumbet, commonly known as Upright Shell Ginger, is a beautiful tropical perennial with long, arching stems of large, lance-shaped green leaves that bring an exotic look to gardens. In late spring and summer, it produces clusters of delicate, shell-like white and pink flowers with a yellow center, adding a stunning contrast to its lush foliage. Reaching heights of 1.5–3 meters, Shell Ginger is ideal for creating a tropical effect in garden beds, borders, or large containers.
