I received my shell ginger a few weeks back. Each plant had a few leaves and was maybe 4 inches tall but in good condition. I transplanted them to a partially shaded spot and both are doing really well. It will be awhile before they blook, but the variegation on the leaves is very interesting and breaks up the wall of solid green that is otherwise in that area.
