{"product_id":"alpinia-zerumbet-shell-ginger","title":"Shell Ginger (Alpinia zerumbet) — Tropical Foliage \u0026 Shell Flowers","description":"\u003cp\u003eShell Ginger ke bade, lambe, chamakdar patte kisi bhi corner ko turant tropical bana dete hain — ek patta hi 1.5–2 feet lamba ho sakta hai. Naam \"shell\" isliye hai kyunki phool ki kaliyan seep jaisi dikhti hain: safed-gulabi, mom jaisi chamak wali, latakti hui strings me, aur khulne par andar se chatakh peela-laal throat dikhta hai. Patte masalne par tez ginger-jaisi khushbu aati hai — ye asli ginger family (Zingiberaceae) ka hi member hai.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEk important baat jo log nahi jaante: \u003cstrong\u003eShell Ginger sirf do saal purani canes pe phool deta hai.\u003c\/strong\u003e Agar aap har saal saara plant zameen tak kaat dete hain (ya North India ki thand se poori canes mar jaati hain), to phool kabhi nahi aayenge — sirf patte. Isliye Mumbai, Goa, Bangalore, Kerala aur North-East me ye regular phool deta hai; Delhi\/Punjab me ye zyadatar foliage plant ban kar reh jaata hai, jo apne aap me bura nahi hai.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJagah: part shade se bright indirect light. Poori tez dhoop me bade patte kinare se jal jaate hain aur roll ho jaate hain. Isko humidity aur nami dono chahiye — monsoon iska favourite season hai. Balcony ka shaded corner, pergola ke neeche, ya ped ki chhaya me ground planting — sab achhe hain. \u003cstrong\u003eEk galti jo isko maarti hai: mitti ko sookhne dena.\u003c\/strong\u003e Ye rhizome plant hai jo lagatar nami chahta hai; sookhne pe patte kinare se brown aur crispy ho jaate hain aur woh damage wapas nahi jaata.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKiske liye nahi:\u003c\/strong\u003e chhoti balcony walon ke liye ye bada aur chaudha plant hai — kam se kam 14-inch pot aur decent jagah chahiye. Pet safety pe imaandari: Alpinia zerumbet ASPCA ki kisi list me nahi hai — na toxic, na non-toxic. Data hi nahi hai, isliye hum ise pet safe declare nahi karenge. Chabane wale pets se door rakhein.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PlantsGram","offers":[{"title":"Established clump, 8-inch nursery pot","offer_id":45468959965319,"sku":null,"price":749.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Large clump, 12-inch pot","offer_id":45468959998087,"sku":null,"price":1295.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0756\/9984\/7303\/files\/alpinia-zerumbet-shell-ginger-1.jpg?v=1786134477","url":"https:\/\/plantsgram.com\/products\/alpinia-zerumbet-shell-ginger","provider":"PlantsGram","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
