Zingiber capitatum (wild ginger).
Keyword(s):
Abstract Zingiber capitatum is a herbaceous, perennial plant that spreads by rhizomes and possibly also by seed. It is native to India and is probably also native to Bangladesh and Nepal. It has medicinal properties and is likely to have been introduced to countries outside its native range for horticultural use. It is cultivated in Brazil and is also present in China and Vietnam. It is described as an invasive, transformer species in Cuba, but this is thought to be a misidentification. It is not listed as a weed or invasive species in any other country and information on its possible impact on habitats or biodiversity outside of its native range is lacking.
