Curcuma hybrid ‘Giant’ is a Curcuma alismatifolia x Curcuma sparganifolia (pink form) hybrid similar DT 554 that we offered last year but from a different breeder. Unlike DT 554 this variety has a red stripe leaf. Stock is still very low on DT 554 for this year so we were able to secure supplies of ‘Giant’ as a replacement. This variety is a very productive and beautiful hybrid with soft pink coloring throughout the inflorescence. Though a bit smaller than a pure C. alismatifolia cultivar it packs the same visual punch with its compact clumping habit and prolific blooming.
Grows to 15″ in medium to full sun, hardy in USDA Zone 8 and higher.
