Customer Tips & Reviews Native Ginger - Atherton Red Back
LESCHENAULT, WA, Australia
Removed. I wasn't that fussed on the fruit - barely any flesh and heaps of seeds. I didn't want the seeds germinating everywhere. It grew well in the shade here and handled winter fine. It needed a fair amount of water to look good.

growing very well could be a little too well as taking over a small corner of the garden
