LagoMarFarms Kahili Ginger Lily Roots

These rhizomes adapt well to both garden beds and containers. If you are planting in a pot, ensure it has excellent drainage and is large enough to accommodate the plant's sturdy, tall growth habit.

While they are labeled for partial to full sun, they perform best in partial sun, especially in hotter climates where intense afternoon heat can scorch the foliage. If you live in a cooler region, they will appreciate the extra light of full sun.

Kahili Ginger is hardy in USDA zones 8-11. If you live in a colder zone, you can treat them as annuals or dig up the rhizomes in the fall and store them indoors over the winter to replant in the spring.

The blooms are known for a strong, sweet, and spicy fragrance that is particularly noticeable in the evening. They typically bloom in late summer to early autumn, adding a burst of color and scent when many other garden plants are fading.

No special treatment is required. The plant's natural nectar production and bright yellow color are highly attractive to butterflies and other pollinators on their own, provided the plant is healthy and well-watered.
