This ginger is grown as a foliage annual in north Texas. The golden variegation of the long tropical leaves lends drama to the shade garden. Alpinia grows best in rich, moist, well drained soil. It will not bloom in north Texas, but can perennialize in mild winters. Grown fresh by our Dallas–Fort Worth wholesale nursery partner and delivered direct-to-door — no big-box middleman, just healthy plants handled with care.

How to Plant Alpinia z. variegated

Simple steps to get your Alpinia z. variegated established in your DFW yard.

STEP 1

Choose the Right Location

Select a spot that gets shade. Allow room for a mature height of 2-3". Plan for 30" spread.

STEP 2

Prepare the Soil

Dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball and just as deep. In North Texas clay soils, amend with compost to improve drainage and root establishment. Break up any hard clay at the bottom of the hole.

STEP 3

Plant Properly

Remove from the container and gently loosen the roots. Place in the hole so the top of the root ball is level with or slightly above the surrounding soil. Backfill with amended soil and tamp gently to remove air pockets.

STEP 4

Water & Mulch

Water thoroughly after planting. Apply 2–3 inches of mulch to retain moisture. Water weekly during the first growing season to help roots establish.
