Description
Hedychium coccineum, or Scarlet Ginger Lily, is a dramatic perennial plant known for its clusters of vibrant scarlet-red flowers that bloom in late summer to fall. The flowers emit a sweet fragrance, attracting bees and butterflies, and stand out against the backdrop of lush green, broad foliage. With a height of 4-6 feet (1.2-1.8 meters), it adds a bold, tropical aesthetic to gardens, borders, or containers.
Scarlet Ginger Lily thrives in moist, well-drained soil and prefers partial to full sun, making it a great choice for adding color and texture to garden beds, water features, or as a statement plant in containers. Hardy in USDA zones 7-10, it is relatively easy to grow once established and offers seasonal interest with minimal maintenance. Whether planted as a focal point or in clusters for added impact, Hedychium coccineum is a perfect addition for gardeners looking to enhance their landscape with exotic blooms and an alluring fragrance.
