Hedychium gracile Cultivation | Propagation | General Uses Cultivation Notes: Requires a rich moist soil and a sunny position[233]. It can be grown in a sunny border as a summer sub-tropical bedding plant[[1]. Plants are not very hardy, they tolerate temperatures down to about -2°c and can be grown at the foot of a south-facing wall in the milder areas of Britain if given a good mulch in the winter[1, 200]. The flowers are sweetlyscented, the scent being most pronounced towards evening[245]. Plants seem to be immune to the predations of rabbits[233]. The tubers should be only just covered in soil[233].
