Hedychium Gardnerianum, The 'Ginger Lily', is a plant native to the Himalayas India Nepal and Bhutan. It grows to 1m tall with long, bright green leaves clasping the tall stems. The very fragrant pale yellow and red flowers are held in dense spikes above the foliage. This Ornamental Ginger Lily will flower in the summer months.
Planting Hedychium Gardnerianum in pots
- Hedychium gardnerianum rhizomes grow naturally above ground.
- Plant your rhizomes/tubers so that the rhizome is horizontal (on its side) with any visible shoots pointing upwards and is only half covered with soil.
- Use a large pot, layering pot with shards or clay pellets on the bottom for drainage and weight.
- Add fresh potting compost and place the roots of the rhizome in the soil – if there are no roots visible the rhizome will soon begin to form them.
- Water immediately after planting.
Planting Hedychium Gardnerianum in the garden
- Find a good location with plenty of sun and drainage.
- Planting half the Rhizome proud of the ground level.
- Water regularly.

Care Instructions
Caring for your Hedychium Gardnerianum
- Once your 'Kahili Ginger' has finished flowering, cut the flower head off and allow the foliage and stem to die back naturally. This can then be removed once it has turned yellow/brown and hollow. However, you will need to cut back Hedychium Gardnerianum before the first frosts.
- Hedychium Gardnerianum are half hardy and can be ok kept outside during the winter months in the UK, however a generous topping of dry mulch to keep them insulated will protect them from long periods of frost.
- If preferred, bring your potted 'Ginger Lily' into a greenhouse during the winter months.
- Must be kept frost free.
- Once the risk of frosts have passed and you see start to see signs of growth again, the mulch can be removed.
- Water regularly during active growth periods.
