The pretty look of emerging shell ginger flower

This is taken on the noon of 7 June 2024. Where I managed to noticed the newly emerging shell ginger flower stalk.

Some information on the uses of this shell ginger [1]:

Statistically, Okinawan natives who consume a traditional diet that includes A. zerumbet have a very long life expectancy.[11] Recent research has investigated its effects on human longevity and the phytochemicals that may be responsible.[12]

A. zerumbet contains many kavalactones structurally related to the compounds in kava (Piper methysticum) and may[clarification needed] help prevent high glucose induced cell damage.[13]

Until then, have fun in taking good picture of your planted shell ginger flower.
