Lightly fragrant golden orange to yellow flowers are produced in large spike-like inflorescences throughout summer on this vigorous Hawaiian hybrid likely attracting butterflies, the occasional hummingbird, and the pollinating Sphinx Moths. Anne Bishop Ginger, a Hedychium hybrid, is a naturally evergreen, rhizomatous and slowly spreading, tropical growing to about 4-5' high but acts like a root hardy die-back perennial in areas where freezes occur. Multiplies readily but not invasively. Makes a good cut flower and is resistant to browsing by deer and rabbits. The Hedychium Gingers typically need the equivalent of about 4-6 hours of cool sunlight in a moist to average moist, rich fertile soil with average or better drainage for optimum vigor and flowering. An organic mulch with all of its many benefits is highly recommended especially for new plantings and in zones 7-8. Item# 10964
