How to identify Peacock gingers (Kaempferia)

Peacock gingers, also known as Resurrection lilies

Peacock gingers exhibits a low-growing, rhizomatous growth habit often spreading across the ground surface. The leaves are distinctly variegated with patterns of silver and green, broad and somewhat rounded in shape, adding to their ornamental appeal. These leaves typically reach a size around 3-7 inches long (7.5-18 cm) and grow directly from the creeping rhizomes. Small, tubular flowers may emerge directly from the rhizome as well, generally staying close to the ground and varying in color depending on specific species within the genus. Peacock gingers's thin, fleshy roots are characteristic of the ginger family to which it belongs.
