From the Japanese woodlands comes this hardy edible ginger. The 3' stalks of green leaves make a tropical-looking specimen in the woodland garden. From late summer through fall, the small, light yellow, orchid-like flowers peek out from the base of the plant at ground level. In Japan the new shoots and flowers are eaten as a seasonal dish.
