Its either Costus spicatus or Scaber, definitely not a dwarf.
It reaches 6-8 foot, cold tolerance in my zone 9b without damage or dormancy, seems like it should be ok to zone 8b with good mulching nice as a potted indoor plant for winter, blooms readily, hummers love it.
Will tolerate full sun but prefers part shade.
Would like to trade for other tall types of gingers or heliconias.
I'm trying to hide an ugly neighbor.

Costus spicatus or Scaber 4 trade
Hummingbirds love these
Yes Danasplants they are a good attractor with plenty of nectar.
I love to see them fighting over them even though theres plenty of flowers to go around
Not sure if the trade is still available. If it is, I can offer some lovely and tall white butterfly ginger.

Hello Yeye5
Yes the offer is still available and i agree the butterfly ginger is not only lovely but also fragrant. I already have this beauty thanks for the reply.
