There are several names for the "White Ginger Lily". See which one you have heard...Hedychium consanguineum, Hedychium coronarium, 'White Butterfly', Garland Flower, Hardy Ginger Lily, Hardy White Butterfly Ginger Lily, White Butterfly Ginger Lily, White Ginger. The "White Ginger Lily" is not a lily at all. It is actually from the Zingiberaceae family.

Scott Ogden in his book Garden Bulbs for the South says that Hedychium "show a special affinity for the balmy, sometimes steamy climate of the South...While climbing temperatures exhaust the wills of lesser plants, these robust exotics grow and blossom ever more profusely. For gardeners in the warm South, a summer without the opulent charms of gingers would be insufferable."

This fragrant beauty graces some of the most charming and historic landscapes across the South. It blooms in late summer and early fall and fills your garden with one of our favorite summer scents. Imagine the famous painter Audubon pinching off a flower as he walked along the gardens of Oakley Plantation, where he taught art as a tutor. Visiting the plantation in St. Francisville, Louisiana, today many still see the ginger lily blooming with all of its glory in the fall. With its lance-shaped leaves and gorgeous white blooms, ginger is an elegant addition to your garden.

The "White Ginger Lily" is a treasure for those of us in zones 8-10. This lovely bloom graces us with fragrance and form during the heat of August. It can provide an exquisite backdrop to lower-growing flowers or make a bold statement all by itself in a large area. Be sure to plant this in a location where you can enjoy its fragrance.

Fragrance: The "White Ginger Lily" has one of the most exquisite fragrances. It is used in perfumes, essential oils, and much more. This ginger lily is known for its fragrance in the garden or in your house. This is NOT the ginger that you want to put on your food. This fresh-scented flower blooms from late summer through autumn.

Foliage: If we had to sum up the foliage of the "White Ginger Lily" it would be large and in charge. The foliage on the White Ginger Lily" is dramatic enough to write home about. The greenery will grow up to 5 feet tall and several feet wide when at full maturity. This alone adds a great architectural aspect to your garden. Sometimes you'll need to trim it up or tie it up to keep it from spilling into unwanted places. Every garden needs a few of these if for nothing else to cut and bring the blooms inside!

Planting: The "White Ginger Lily" does best when planted in full summer sun in zones 8-10. Yes, you read that correctly -- full summer sun! By planting in full sun the plant will get full of foliage. It will do well with at least 8 hours a day of summer sun. If it gets too little sun, it will try to reach for the sun and not be as full. Plant the rhizomes in well-drained soil on their side with the tips almost visible or even with the dirt. Plan on planting in a location where the plants can grow comfortably to their full height of 5 feet and several feet wide. It will multiply and fill your garden with blooms and greenery. This perennial will die away in the winter but return in the spring.

Containers: Even though it gets tall and lush, the white ginger lily is a great candidate to be planted in containers:

  • It has shallow roots for a ginger.
  • It tolerates being somewhat root-bound.
  • It produces tall, lush foliage and fragrant blooms even in a container.
  • You can move it around your patio or balcony for natural interest and fragrance.
  • Allows those in zones colder than 8 to have it.
  • Easy to bring in and store during the winter since it is dormant.

Tips for Success in a Pot

  • Pot Size: Start with at least a 12–16 inch wide pot (or larger). Bigger = more rhizome space = more blooms.

  • Drainage: Essential. Use a pot with good drainage holes and well-draining soil (rich but loose — not soggy).

  • Sunlight: Prefers bright, filtered light to part sun. Can handle full sun in cooler zones, but in a pot in zones 9 & 10, it likes a little filtered sun.

  • Water: Keep evenly moist during growing season, but not soggy. In dormancy (winter), reduce water.

  • If you're in a colder zone (below USDA 8), growing it in a pot makes overwintering easier — just let it go dormant, cut back foliage, and store the pot in a cool, dry, frost-free place.
  • You can lift and divide rhizomes every 2–3 years if it becomes crowded

Water: The "White Ginger Lily" does have water needs. If you want it to perform, be sure that you water them well during hot and dry summers: however, do not plant them in continually soggy areas as this can damage the rhizome. Don't let the soil go completely dry for long periods of time either.

Other uses and interesting facts:

Pollinators love the "White Ginger Lily." We aren't always sure if it is because it is solely based on the fragrance or also because the ginger lily is one of the few flowers blooming in late summer and early fall when so many flowers can't withstand the summer heat and have long faded.

The "White Ginger Lily" is used in essential oils and perfumes. The scent of the ginger lily is used to help calm and relax people.

The flowers are used as garland in Hawaii and Japan. In China, the ginger lily is used for both medicinal and ornamental purposes. It is the national flower of Cuba. In the tropics of Hawaii the "White Ginger Lily" is considered invasive, but in the temperate zones of 8-10 in mainland United States, it isn't because it goes dormant during the winter.

LOVE this brand. Have many of their styles. This is basically an unstuffed toy.
Size: Large, Color: Dinos Frills (Gray)
I have about 10 -12 different styles of the GoDog brand toys. It is like Xmas when my Malinois dogs get a new GoDog toy. Have loved this brand for many years and have some toys which have lasted 5-6 years -- minor "surgeries" stitch they back together -- until I retired them. They have never just worn out. Just to be clear: THESE TOYS ARE NOT CHEW PROOF. NO STUFFED TOY IS CHEW PROOF. However, this brand of stuffed toy is more chew proof than other brands. But if you are looking for a chew proof stuffed toy be advised -- IT DOES NOT EXIST!! No fabric is chew proof. Even if they invented such a fabric I would not want to ruin my dog's teeth by letting them try to chew through it. Protecting one's dog's teeth should be the highest priority. If a dog can chew through a PLASTIC KENNEL and even METAL WIRE KENNELS (yes, it happens) then they can easily chew through a puffy, fluffy stuffed toy. The "Chew Guard Technology" language may be misleading to some customers who are disappointed in the brand. I defend the brand and have used it for many years. No, I don't get paid or get free toys. Since I have had many styles within this brand and even have the pink version of this style I thought I knew what I was getting. This is basically a toy without stuffing which some people prefer. For whatever reasons my dogs prefer toys that are stuffed. Really stuffed with a firm density that they can sink their teeth into. So this toy will be OK. I can tell it will not be one of their beloved toys like some of the brand's other styles such as the purple brontosaurus. My fault for not reading more closely and assuming the grey version would be exactly like the pink version which is fully stuffed. If they get bored with these two I keep some of the Chew Guard toys stock piled. BTW one can wash and dry these toys. Yes, eventually the squeakers suck up some water and die but one can replace the squeakers. Also on Amazon. So I am willing to replace the squeakers a few times in the life time of one of these toys to be able to wash and dry them occasionally. Usually takes a couple drying cycles to get the heavily stuffed toys dried completely. If you have an aggressive chewer you may wish to look into Goughnuts dog toys or other hard rubber toys that are designed for aggressive chewers. Even then, with a determined dog, the Goughnuts toys can be chewed through. I think they offer a replacement guarantee. The other brand which has some toys of hard rubber is West Paw. An excellent brand that also offers a one time replacement. Bully Sticks are another option for chewers. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE stay away from the hard plastic chew toys like the Nyla Bones. Hard plastic toys will destroy your dog's teeth over time. I learned the hard way (no pun intended) and ruined one of my dog's teeth. Vet asked if I allowed my dog to chew ROCKS !!!!!! Every tooth was cracked or fractured. Not wishing to pull teeth I had to pay for some very expensive root canals and caps. Vet's advise: If you can't dent the toy or chew with your finger nail DO NOT offer to your dog. Good advise to follow. Even some of the Bully Sticks (Costco Brand) are so hard they can chip or fracture teeth. Best for you and your dog.

Well made, minor issue was quickly resolved
Size: Large, Color: Dinos Bruto (Purple)
I purchased the Dino Bruto Dog toy for my labradoodle who is quite fond of squeaky, squawky stuffed toys and oddly enough has shown a preference for purple. I opened the package with my hound standing by waiting for his gift. I detached the tags and attempted to squeak the toy. It seemed difficult to squeak or honk. I tossed the purple Dino Bruto to my dog who excitedly chomped to squeak. The toy squawked a couple times and then just quit. My poor hound was staring up at me with that "what's up with this" look on his face. I tracked down the website for the GoDog toys, not going through the Amazon return process. I called the good people at GoDog and stated simply that my dog's favorite part of the toy failed quite quickly and I was wondering about guarantees. I was told to go to the website and file a replacement request. The replacement request required that I include a photo which I did as directed. I received an reply email within a couple hours which stated that a new toy would be sent out shortly. I am happy to report that we received a replacement toy, not the purple Dino, but a colorful wood duck. The squawker device works well and is still performing like new more than a month later. It appears that the squeaker is not those little plastic squeakers but the bigger heavy plastic bag, bladder, with what I visualize as a duck call sort of sound device. I am guessing because I haven't seen the inside of the GoDog toys. I have seen the guts of other stuffed toys which use this type of noise device. While our dog seems to enjoy the sound of the plastic bag, bladder set-up squawkers, they seem to fail quickly and I tend to avoid them because of this. The toys using this type of squawker that I have seen, use what looks like a cheap lightweight plastic bag which is not securely attached to the "voice box". Since the GoDog replacement toy is holding up so well, I am guessing GoDog uses a heavier grade plastic bladder coupled with reinforced construction. The purple Dino Bruto toy still looks new even after multiple times of our hound grabbing the purple toy, shaking it at us with his invite to give chase or play keep away. Since the squawker failed so quickly with the new toy, I figure it was just a defective item which does not reflect the general quality of toys from GoDog. One evening our neighbor was visiting while his pitbull was playing in our yard with our dog. Our patio door was open so our dog ran into the house and grabbed his purple Dino Bruto toy. He is a bit of a show-off with new toys. Our dog then went racing back into the yard, shaking his GoDog toy at the pitbull. A quick game of tug-of-war ensued. Since this is a new toy, our neighbor leaped into the game and took the toy away from the dogs. In that short time of tugging between the dogs, the toy held together and did not even pull apart at any of the seams. There were no puncture marks either. This is a game our dog has initiated before with the neighbor pitbull. Normally, the stuffed toys are ripped apart almost immediately. I was surprised and impressed with the quality of the sewing which appears to employ some sort of reinforced construction or heavier material. I plan to make more purchases from GoDog toys. The toys are a little more expensive than some stuffed dogs toys but they hold up so well I figure they are worth a few more dollars. They are great toys that hold up well and the company provides quick responses to inquiries. I consider this a winning combination.

Cute and fairly long lasting

Lasted from Nov 13th, 2024-August 20th, 2025 lol very impressive. She played with it nearly daily and loved the big squeak. The squeak box was just ripped out so she probably won’t play with it anymore. Happy to order another!
