Hedychium 'Molten Gold'

Hedychium 'Molten Gold' is a hardy ginger featuring upright green foliage reaching about three feet, adorned with delicate clusters of vibrant yellow flowers late in the season. Thrive it in full sun with rich, moist soil throughout the growing period. Apply a layer of fallen leaves as mulch in winter. In colder climates, it can be grown in containers or stored in dry peat moss above freezing temperatures. Related to culinary ginger (Zingiber officinale), this plant brings subtropical foliage and striking late-summer to fall blooms. It performs well in warm, sunny to partially shaded areas and adapts easily to container cultivation, suitable for frost-free winter shelter or as an indoor plant.
