Description

Add an exotic look and feel to your garden with this pair of Ginger Lilies. Create a wonderful display of scented blooms, year after year from late summer onwards. Zingy spikes of blousy flowers tower above clumps of lance-shaped leaves, instantly transporting you to a tropical paradise!

Take a deep breath when near these beauties, as the heavily scented blooms carry a stunningly sweet fragrance, which only intensifies in early evenings.

Despite having tropical good looks, this plant is totally reliable in the UK, and the tubers will overwinter successfully and thrive in a sun-baked spot in a pot or planted directly in the soil.

Top Tip - plant very shallow on surface of compost in hot sunny spot to get going, they love being baked to get started.

Top Tips
  • Plant shallowly near surface, laid horizontally, in hot , sunny spot, for earliest growth
Care Information

Planting Advice for Hardy Ginger Lily, Hedychium

  • Plant the rhizomes into pots using a good soil-based compost such as John Innes No2.
  • The rhizome should be placed horizontally just below the surface of the soil with the small reddish coloured buds facing upwards.
  • Water well and then grow on in a frost proof place such as a cold bedroom or greenhouse before planting out when all risk of frost has passed.
  • Alternatively, store the rhizomes in a cool, frost-free place (such as a garage, shed or unheated porch) until they can be planted straight out in the garden.


Aftercare Advice for your Hardy Ginger Lily

  • Keep well-watered during the summer, but dry during winter.
  • Outside, the rhizomes should be covered in the autumn with a deep, dry mulch, or dug up and brought inside and kept in a frost-free place until the spring when they can be planted outside again.

 

Delivery Information

Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.

Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
