Kaempferia Peacock Ginger Var.

Kaempferia ‘Peacock Ginger’ Variegated is a stunning tropical ginger relative grown for its beautifully patterned foliage. Its broad leaves show off painterly streaks of green, silver, cream, and soft variegation, giving it that rare “collector plant” look without taking up much space.

This plant grows from rhizomes and may go seasonally dormant, especially in cooler months. If the foliage fades back, don’t panic — the rhizome can rest and return with fresh growth when warmth and moisture are right again.

Kaempferia prefers bright, indirect light or filtered shade, warm temperatures, and a rich, well-draining potting mix. Keep the soil lightly moist during active growth, but avoid letting it stay soggy. During dormancy, water much less to help prevent rhizome rot.

A beautiful choice for plant lovers who enjoy unique foliage, ginger relatives, and anything that looks a little magical on the shelf.
