Why gardeners are swapping white Butterfly Ginger for this yellow giant

Hedychium flavum x coronarium, Yellow Butterfly Ginger, Nardo Ginger Lily - this variety grow fast and much bigger and vigorous than classic White Butterfly Ginger. More flowers - more fragrance!

What makes it especially nice:
  • If you love fragrance in your garden, this plant delivers - the scent from the flower spikes can be wonderfully strong in warm evenings.
  • The yellow-toned flowers are a subtle variation on the classic white butterfly ginger, so you get the same delightful form and perfume but with a twist of color.
  • Bold foliage gives a tropical look - great for adding height, texture and a sense of lushness.
  • Because it grows somewhat larger and more vigorous, it can create a dramatic feature rather than just a filler plant. Make sure you have enough room, especially if planted near other plants.
  • Because the flowers last only a day each (in the white butterfly ginger, each flower lasts about one day) according to one source, you’ll see new blooms and old blooms in succession rather than long-lasting individual flowers.
  • This yellow-butterfly ginger hybrid ticks all the boxes of a showy, fragrant, tropical-style plant with personality. Give it the space, moisture and good soil it craves, and you’ll be rewarded with lush leaves and clusters of softly yellow, scented blooms that draw in attention - and sniffers - all summer long!

Cherish those with whom you can be yourself

Cat Shura aka Lil S*t

Cat Shura aka Lil S*t

🎀 Cherish those with whom you can be yourself 🍕

"...Cherish those with whom you can be yourself -
without masks, without pretense, without the need for words.
Those beside whom your soul breathes freely,
where silence is not empty, but full of quiet understanding.

Guard such people carefully -
they do not come by chance.
They are gifts of fate, gentle reminders of what is true.
There are few of them in this world, only a handful,
but they are the ones who light your journey
and keep your heart alive..."
