| Botanical Name | Alpinia zerumbet 'Variegata' |
| Description | A must-have for Southeast Texas shade gardens. This ginger thrives in Houston's humidity; however, it prefers rich, organic soil with good drainage. While it can tolerate some clay if it isn't sitting in water, it performs best when the soil is loosened with compost. Will return from freezeback from roots. |
| Exposure | Part Shade to Shade; foliage may scorch in direct afternoon sun. |
| Height x Width | 4-6 ft. x 4-6 ft. |
| Water | Average to High; keep soil moist but avoid waterlogged conditions. |
| Zones | 8 - 11 (Perennial in Houston; may die back in winter and return). |
| Fertilization | Balanced slow-release fertilizer in spring and mid-summer. |
| Pruning | Remove old or winter-damaged stalks at the base to encourage new growth. |
| Deer Resistance | High |
