Sand ginger
Sand ginger, also known as Kaempferia galanga or Sanli, is a perennial herb that grows in slightly shaded mountainous areas or is cultivated. It is not cold-resistant, thriving best at temperatures between 22–38°C, with peak growth occurring between 25–28°C. Raoping sand ginger is prized for its thick flesh, bright color, and delicious taste. It is hand-processed, sun-dried, and then sold. The rhizome is used medicinally to warm the middle, dispel cold, regulate qi, relieve pain, eliminate dampness, and dispel foulness.
