The cultivar name is slightly uncertain, and no one remembers what name they were brought in with, but the plants best resemble 'Dr Moy' in terms of moderate variegation and high vigor, as opposed to its more variegated, less vigorous sports ('Dr Moy Improved', 'Verity', 'Tahitian Flame', 'Vanilla Ice').2172612NA 88855

42NA 75512'Tara'Hedychium sp.NANot Available2006CultivarFull name as recorded at U.S. National Arboretum: Hedychium 'Tara'. This cultivar was originally collected and introduced as an unusual form of Hedychium coccineum, but is now considered to have originated from natural hybridization of H. coccineum and H. gardnerianum. It has proven to be consistently hardy without winter protection and reliable in its performance ever since it was first planted in 2006. It seems to produce and maintain rhizomes deeper than most other Hedychium, which provides it some protection from winter cold. This variety also has a very long season of flowering, and combined with its bright orange color and some fragrance, is probably one of the best Hedychium selections for gardens in this region. There is a color illustration of this cultivar (labeled Hedychium coccineum 'Tara') by Ann Farrer on the page facing p. 129 of The Plantsman 4(3): 129-149. 1982. -SBL2150403NA 75512
