From the rhizome the plant produces long erect, sterile branches, up to 5 m high, very similar to a classic cane.  Floriferous branches grow near the long canes, which will produce the spice (the fruits).  These branches are much smaller in size.<\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"Foglie\">Leaves<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Cardamom leaves are of two types.  We have the sheath that completely wraps the upright branches, so it is very long, even if totally rolled up.  And then there are the secondary leaves, oblong-lanceolate, even up to 1 m long, with a sharp apex and wavy margin.  These leaves descend the long branches.<span id=\"ezoic-pub-ad-placeholder-652\" class=\"ezoic-adpicker-ad\"><\/span><span class=\"ezoic-ad medrectangle-3 medrectangle-3652 adtester-container adtester-container-652\" data-ez-name=\"coltivazionebiologica_it-medrectangle-3\"><span id=\"div-gpt-ad-coltivazionebiologica_it-medrectangle-3-0\" ezaw=\"728\" ezah=\"90\" style=\"position:relative;z-index:0;display:inline-block;padding:0;min-height:90px;min-width:728px\" class=\"ezoic-ad\"><\/span><\/span><\/p><div id=\"forum-2268702959\" class=\"forum-content forum-entity-placement\">\t\t<div class=\"ad-wrapper\" style=\"width:100%;min-height:250px;text-align:center\">\r\n\t\t\t<!-- In Article Blog -->\r\n\t\t\t<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n\t\t\t\t style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\"\r\n\t\t\t\t data-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\r\n\t\t\t\t data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n\t\t\t\t data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3476569516614521\"\r\n\t\t\t\t data-ad-slot=\"9829044906\"><\/ins>\r\n\t\t\t<script>\r\n\t\t\t\t (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n\t\t\t<\/script>\r\n\t\t<\/div><\/div>\n<h3><span id=\"Fiori\">Flowers<\/span><\/h3>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"780\" height=\"533\" alt=\"Cardamom flowers\" class=\"ezlazyload wp-image-19609\" ezimgfmt=\"rs rscb3 src ng ngcb3\" src=\"https:\/\/forum.sbenny.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/1649247319_818_How-to-grow-cardamom.jpg\"><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p>The cardamom flowers are gathered in a long, supple and almost always falling panicle, carried, as mentioned, by a short branch that comes from the rhizome.<br \/>The individual flowers are very aesthetically pleasing.

These are countries with a tropical climate, therefore mild and humid in winter, hot and humid in summer.  These conditions do not exist in our country, where winters are mild-temperate.<br \/>The cardamom plant cannot resist below 10 \u00b0 C, with the ideal vegetative range around 20 \u00b0 C.  In the home, therefore, the only possibility is to grow it in pots, sheltering the plants at home during the winter.  Unfortunately, cardamom plants are very bulky and need a lot of space to develop.  For this reason, they require huge pots that are difficult to move.  In our opinion, therefore, the only possibility to successfully cultivate cardamom in Italy is to do it in a heated greenhouse (protected culture), with controlled temperatures and humidity.  A choice that requires large investments from an economic point of view.<\/p>\n<h3><span id=\"Riproduzione\">Reproduction<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>You can find cardamom plants for sale at nurseries that deal with exotic fruits.  From the plant, however, it is easy to obtain clones by dividing the underground rhizome, an operation which is preferable to carry out in spring or autumn.

This spice, with a characteristic and refined aroma, is among the most used and expensive in Eastern countries and in the West.  The essential oil gives cardamom a warm and pungent aroma, which makes it a very popular ingredient for the preparation of liqueurs, soft drinks, sweets and perfumes.  In the kitchen it is perfect for flavoring meat and fish dishes with a strong flavor.<br \/>In Arab countries it is instead used to flavor the <u>coffee<\/u> in traditional rites.<br \/>The pharmaceutical sector uses cardamom for its high covering power of bitter, disgusting or too persistent odors and tastes, such as B vitamins, liver extracts and antibiotics.<span id=\"ezoic-pub-ad-placeholder-663\" class=\"ezoic-adpicker-ad\"><\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"Proprieta_del_cardamomo\">Properties of cardamom<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Cardamom also has <u>beneficial properties<\/u> as an appetite stimulant, excellent digestive and carminative.
