Wild ginger

SlidersSunday

 

Native to China, India and Nepal, yellow ginger is a perennial plant with large leaves and fragrant yellow flowers. Yellow ginger can out-compete native plants and is a major weed in a number of countries, including New Zealand and Hawaii.

 

Yellow ginger's popularity as a garden plant increases the risk of it spreading in Queensland.

 

Yellow ginger is a restricted invasive plant under the Biosecurity Act 2014.
