Back to buying optionsWhite Butterfly Ginger Rhizomes – 2 Fresh Hedychium coronarium Rhizomes | Fragrant White Ginger Lily | Tropical Perennial | Garden & Container Friendly | Free Shipping
Bring tropical beauty and sweet fragrance to your garden with these 2 freshly harvested White Butterfly Ginger rhizomes. Hedychium coronarium is a fast-growing perennial prized for its elegant white flowers, which resemble butterflies in flight, and its wonderfully fragrant blooms. These rhizomes are harvested from established plants and are ready to be planted and grown into beautiful tropical garden specimens.
White Butterfly Ginger is an excellent choice for flower beds, borders, cottage gardens, pollinator-friendly spaces, and containers. In suitable climates, the plants return year after year and can develop into impressive clumps with lush foliage and fragrant summer-to-fall blooms. Foliage may be trimmed before shipping to help preserve plant energy and reduce shipping stress; this is normal for shipped rhizomes and does not prevent new growth.
