Hedychium 'Tara' - 2011

That is a striking plant:)

What a beauty, does this need a lot of drainage

Good drainage and a sheltered position. I mulch it each autumn and wonder if I'll see it again but it's increasing each year

Looking fantastic, a real gem!

Thank you Andew I hope it continues increasing for you, such a beauty to lose

Lovely, no sign of any flowers on my ginger lilies as yet?

Andrew, as they are "lilies" doe they get bothered by lilly beetle? Love it by the way.

Tetrarch - no, it's not in the lily family, it's a ginger. Lily beetles don't touch it. This is the problem with common names, they don't really link plants from the same family together

I did think that..thats why I put lily in quotation marks. But you never know...I will earmark this one for the future..thanks
