Cardamom is a principal ingredient in curry powders, and is used to flavor confectioneries, liqueurs and chewing gums. This South Indian perennial is popularly grown for use in Indian and Asian Cuisine. The seeds are dried (and often crushed) for adding unique flavor to meals and curries. This plant is cold sensitive, requires moist soil and will grow best in a shady warm location. Cardamom makes an attractive addition to the subZingiber tropical landscape.
This plant has antimicrobial properties.
