Introduction to Hawaiian Ginger

Page introduction...

Ginger-Exotic tropical flower with a thick stem and a long waxy blossom. Average size is 3-4 feet tall. Available in red and pink. Soak the head in water for 10-15 minutes when received. Don't keep below 55 degrees F. Last 7-14 days.

Hawaiian ginger flowers come in white, pink, and red and they are known locally in Hawaii as "Awapuhi".

gingers and heliconias should not be stored below 65 degrees F.

To prevent gingers from bending, you'll want to hold them vertically.
