A
little about Curcumas
Hidden gingers as they are sometimes
called, curcumas are perhaps the most widely known ginger.
The inflorescence of many curcumas is borne within the
wondrously lush vegetation. Most curcumas do best in filtered
sun but there are a few varieties that want more light
than one would associate with gingers.
The curcuma is a very important cash
crop. Curcuma longa is the souce of the spice Turmeric
and India is the world’s most important producer of the
spice.
I have short Curcumas and tall Curcumas.
I also have Curcumas with fat crinkled leaves as well as
Curcumas with long thin leaves.
