Hedychium ‘Pink Princess’
Hedychium 'Pink Princess' is a hardy ginger with delicate pink, fragrant, tropical flowers atop tropical foliage.
The attractive tropical foliage on Hedychium ‘Pink Princess’ is topped late in the season with beautiful, delicate and fragrant flowers in various shades of pink. Hedychium are related to the culinary ginger Zingiber officinale. Where hardy, they add subtropical foliage and exotic late summer and fall flowers to the garden. Grow in warm spots in full to part sun with rich soil and abundant moisture. Mulch with fallen leaves in winter. They are also easy to grow in pots and can be protected in a frost free area for winter or grown as a houseplant.
