Peduncle — Curcuma alismatifolia Gagnep.
Curcuma alismatifolia Gagnep.
The peduncle of the Siam tulip (Curcuma alismatifolia) is a key morphological trait that determines the ornamental value and market quality of the plant, both for cut flower production and potted culture.
In the reference 5 varieties crop Siam tulip, where this is mentioned in the description.
The length of the Curcuma alismatifolia peduncle, measured from the base to the inflorescence, typically ranges from 35 to 60 cm. This parameter correlates directly with plant productivity: the development of storage roots on the rhizome promotes an increase in peduncle length and the total number of inflorescences.
In breeding, there are compact plant forms with shortened peduncles. The length of this organ is a critical quality parameter for the cut flower market and is highly dependent on growing conditions, including light intensity and mineral nutrition.
