The photos above show the Dwarf Cardamom planted at 1m centres. In only one year, this is the result obtained.

A smaller dwarf version of our popular False Cardamom ginger. Makes an excellent landscaping and screening plant with its dense growth habit. Without a doubt, its best feature is the fragrant and spicy foliage.

Alpinia - May be grown in full sun provided plants are given adequate water, though plants will look their best when provided with afternoon shade. For further information about planting, care and maintenance. Please refer to our  Heliconia and Ginger Growing Guide.
