Comments:
The name Curcuma 'Figi', as Curcuma petiolata 'Variegata' and Curcuma 'Emperor' have been used for this selection and these names probably refer to the same plant. This ginger has pleated green leaves with a bright white margin. Goes dormant in November and returns to growth in mid to late spring.
