I almost bought one from a nursery here in Houston. They had 5 gallon pots for $14.95!! The blooms are pink, if I remenber correctly. They keep their foilage for the most part here in zone 9a. All of my zingibers kept their foliage this year. I have an "alpinia zerumbet" that had some upper leaf scorch this winter, but for the most part it stays green all year. Pictured is the "alpinia zerumbet" flower stalk. The flowers in the picture are over 9 ft. from the ground!
