Hedychium Aurantiacum

#ginger-lily just starting to open 🧡

Evening Bestie @vec you still have loads in flower in your garden & by the look of this more to come, looks Amazing 👌😍😘

Such a late flowering ginger .... Hope it opens up before we get frosts #hedychium-aurantiacum

🤞🤞🤞

Hope so too. Would like to see the mature flower

@lamaisonbleueoleron My ginger is looking very healthy 💚💚💚 #hedychium

My ginger lily is looking very healthy this year, no buds yet but hopefully not long #hedychium

Looks like it wont be long 👍

I can at least confirm that this one is hardy. It was mulched with manure but I left it in the ground

Ooh just noticed that #hedychium has 2 large shoots Now I didn't protect this very well over winter so am chuffed to see it 💚

Wohoo 🙌🏻 that's fab Julie 💚

#hedychium in a lovely pale orange colour. #gingerlily

Good morning @plants and @nessas thank you 😁😁😁 at alien

Morning. Been meaning to grow some gingers. Looks ace

Morning susie, this one flowers very late in the year. Didn't think it was going to make it ☺

So glad it did. It's so delicate. Does it smell lovely? And do you take it in over winter or just protect it?

I can't tell you @susieg I'm too blocked up to smell anything 😁😁😁

Pressed send by mistake lol. This is my first year of having one @susieg. I'm going to mulch it heavily and pray 🙏

How did I miss this earlier. My hedychium ginger lily is out in flower. I really didn't know if it would do anything. That's made my week 💕

It's great that plants give us so much pleasure, makes it so worthwhile 😊

I know if I told my other half he would just be "oh ok" but they're my babies 😁 @christineb Now my children aren't so needy, I need something to nurture 😉

👌👌👌🙌🙌🙌👏👏👏

Stunning photo 😀👍📷👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Is it the beginnings of a flower bud .... the suspense is killing me 😁 #hedychium #gingerlily

I would be chuffed to bits if it is @latebloomer I didn't hold out much hope before but keeping those old fingers crossed

One off #vecswishlist An anonymous (as of yet) hedychium. I asked at our lovely perrywoods garden centre if they had one. They were growing these out the back and let me have it for £4.99 as they weren't sure which one it was ☺ It's about 4ft high #gingerlily

Pretty sure the others were labelled up as aurantiacum. I hope this is one too☺

Good buy!!

To be honest Mike, @mikethegardener I thought it was going to be nearer £10 to £15 and I'd have still bought it 😁😁😁
