About Torch Ginger

A member of the ginger family, this exotic plant grew in my yard in Kona. Even its Latin botanical name, Etlingera elatior, sounds exotic.

Torch Ginger is in the evergreen family, yet grows in warm, tropical climates.

The petals are waxy and lend a refreshing citrusy flavor in curry dishes or raw in salads. They sit on a single stalk 4' high, with the leaves growing on stalks over 12' high.
