Product Details

Green Shell Ginger

Alpinia zerumbet

Green Shell Ginger is the ideal tropical addition to your flower bed, no matter where you plant it. From late spring through summer, this plant produces elegant clusters of white and pink funnel-shaped flowers. Reaching up to 6 feet in height and spreading 4 feet wide, it’s perfect for creating a lush, layered look in borders, backdrops, or large containers.

  • Annual herbaceous plant
  • Clusters of white and pink flowers on dark green foliage
  • Fast growth rate
  • Does well in both flower beds and large planters
  • Loves moist soil

This exotic plant loves the Northern Texas weather and full sun, but it doesn’t mind partial shade either, making it versatile for various placements. Keep Green Shell Ginger tidy by removing wilted leaves or spent flowers as needed. While heat-hardy, this plant doesn't love frost, so bring it inside during colder months or mulch the roots to protect it.
