where to find alpinia zerumbet not variegated in miami

17 years ago

Does anyone know of a miami area source (homestead, fl?) for shell ginger (alpinia zerumbet) which is not variegated? I was told that the last strong hurricane wiped out much of that variety. I'm new to tropical gardening, many thanks for your guidance.
