Description:
Hedychium flavescens, a perennial flowering plant native to the Himalayas and surrounding regions, is known for its tall, 6-foot stalks and clusters of creamy yellow flowers with a lemony fragrance. This shade-tolerant plant thrives in a variety of soils and can regrow from rhizome fragments, although it is considered invasive in some areas like New Zealand. Its large flower heads bloom in early October, adding a late-season burst of color and scent to gardens. Despite its invasive potential, it is appreciated for its ornamental value and ability to attract pollinators.
