Go for them Barry - the Hedychiums in particular are a wonderful genus
of virtually hardy plants bearing for the most part, masses of showy
flowers from summer right through to early winter. With many you also
get a wonderful fragrance. Dave Skinner has put together an excellent
site covering many of the gingers and all of the major genera which

A brief look through will show you how diverse and attractive this
