    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    Lightly fragrant golden orange to yellow flowers are produced in large spike-like inflorescences throughout the summer on this vigorous Hawaiian hybrid. The 4-5' high stems are adorned with large medium green tropical foliage. The flowers of Anne Bishop Ginger attract hummingbirds and other pollinators and also make beautiful cut flowers. Multiplies readily but not invasively. Provide a moist rich soil for the best results.

    Gorgeous, hardy ginger, with large leaves and stalks to 5-6' tall x 2-3' wide, topped in mid to late summer until frost with fragrant, panicles, to 1' tall, of apricot-fading-to-yellow flowers with red stamens. Need we mention the delight of your resident hummingbirds? This Hawaiian hybrid is best in full sun on the coast and partial shade inland in rich soil with regular and abundant water. This die-back perennial is easily frost to 10 °F, USDA zone 8, and into upper zone 7 with very good drainage. Zingiberaceae
