Knowledge expansion:

The total pedicel is 25 cm long; Spike conical, 4-5 cm long; Bracts ovate, about 2.5 cm long, with pale green or yellow edges and small tips; Calyx tube is about 65438 0 cm long; Corolla yellow-green, tube 2-2.5 cm long, lobes lanceolate, less than 2 cm long.

The central lobe of the lip is oblong and obovate, shorter than the corolla lobe, with purple stripes and yellowish spots, and the lateral lobe is ovoid, about 6 mm long; Stamens dark purple, anthers about 9 mm long; Connective appendage subulate, ca. 7 mm long.

Ginger is native to tropical areas of Southeast Asia. I like warm and humid climate, and my ability to resist cold and drought is weak. These plants can only grow during the frost-free period. The optimum growth temperature is 25-28℃. When the temperature is lower than 20℃, the germination is slow, the plants wither when exposed to frost, and the roots completely lose their germination ability.

Ginger is resistant to shade but not to strong light, and the requirements for the length of sunshine are not strict. Therefore, when planting, we should build a shade shed or use intercropping crops for proper shade to avoid strong sunlight. Ginger has underdeveloped root system, poor drought resistance and waterlogging tolerance, and is particularly particular about water requirements. Too dry or too wet soil during the growing period is not conducive to the growth and expansion of ginger slices, and it is easy to cause diseases and rot.
