Someone was doing that odd thing where you name a kid the opposite of what you want it to be to ward off evil or some such when they described this one. Despite the humorously offp utting nomenclature this is actually a surprisingly cute and fairy-like little ginger relative with stalks of tiny golden flowers in a shape almost akin to a paper crane. Almost unheard of in cultivation, especially outside of botanic gardens so cultural information is scarce to say the least but given the Sichuanese origins and Zingiberaceae nature it likely wants a moist rich soil and to be kept protected from strong frosts.
