Curcuma Torch Series

Description

Wherever you decide to plant it, the Torch Ginger makes an elegant yet tropical statement with its large, lush green leaves, dramatic blooms, and stunning color. For one thing, banana leaves, which are themselves the pinnacle of tropical island style, are reminiscent of the lush, showy leaves on torch ginger. The banana leaf is naturally so associated with a tropical style that the iconic Beverly Hills Hotel has used its distinctive image as its signature print for more than 50 years.

However, it’s not just its leaves that give you the impression that you’re on a distant island (or Beverly Hills for that matter). Huge, eye-catching cone-shaped or “torch-like” flowers that are red, pink, and coral on the torch ginger are everything you could ask for in a flowering plant to give your home a tropical feel. Not to mention that torch ginger blooms can last up to two weeks and are excellent as cut flowers.
