Dwarf Cardamom outdoor plants The Peperomia albovittata 'Piccolo Banda'This plant is Alpinia nutans or 'Dwarf Cardamom' and sometimes 'False Cardamom' so it is an ornamental for the garden not 'True Cardamom' (Elletaria cardamomum) of aromatic Indian spice fame. That being said, it is a fabulous addition to the subtropical garden for its lush foliage and beautiful creamy shell like flowers. The foliage gives off a wonderful Cardamom like scent when you rub or crush the leaves, hence the name Dwarf False Cardamom. Grows
