Our range of Zingiber or ornamental Gingers, exotic perennials. Zingiber, or ornamental gingers, are aromatic tropical perennials with slender stems and spectacular flowers. The Zingiber officinale or common ginger grown for its aromatic rootstock thrives in pots or in the ground in warm climates. The Zingiber mioga or Japanese ginger is prized for its lush foliage and discreet edible flowers close to the ground. Grown for ornamental purposes and as a culinary condiment, the Zingiber zerumbet is characterised by its striking red pinecone-shaped inflorescences.
Gingers prefer rich, moist, and well-drained soil, as well as partial shade. Winter protection is essential in cold climates. They grow very well in pots in a warm and humid atmosphere.
