PINECONE GINGER

PINECONE GINGER zingiber zerumbet
 Perennial grows up to 6 ft tall, sometimes even taller. This means that it is best placed somewhere where it has room to spread out. It also does best with a bit of shade from the sun, so consider planting it where it won't be in direct sunlight for long periods of time. It likes regular watering, but not too much, as it will not thrive with too much water. It is also easy to grow in the ground or in pots. The plants colonize readily, so they are a good choice for covering a large area.
