It belongs to the same family as ginger, Zingiberaceae.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rapid growth during its active growing period. It develops from underground rhizomes and forms an upright clump of long, lanceolate green leaves. It can naturally enter dormancy after its flowering period: the foliage then gradually yellows and disappears before regrowing from the rhizomes during the next growth cycle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFlowers:\u003c\/strong\u003e Spectacular and long-lasting flowering. It produces upright inflorescences composed of deep pink to purple bracts that surround small, discreet flowers. The decorative bracts can retain their beauty for several weeks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLight:\u003c\/strong\u003e Prefers bright but indirect light.

Maintain consistent moisture without soaking the potting mix.
