Notes
'Chiang Mai Pink' turmeric (Curcuma alismatifolia 'Chiang Mai Pink') is a perennial for borders, containers, and cut flowers. It is hardy to USDA zone 8, or down to 10°F (-12°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average moisture. Pink blooms appear from early to late summer. It grows 12 to 24 inches tall and wide, so it fits well in a small bed or a pot.
Pairs well with Creme de Cognac dahlia, Gerbera daisy, and Red Lion amaryllis.
