RE: [AZH] ginger lilies for gorilla browse?

Tom,
 
We use just about any ginger species with the exception of costus for our primates.  We don't have gorillas but we have orangutans, siamangs and one agile gibbon.

Subject: [AZH] ginger lilies for gorilla browse?


hey everyone:
I know there's a lot of interest lately in growing Afromomum melegueta
for gorillas. Does anyone have experience with other ginger species as
gorilla browse? Here at the Little Rock Zoo we have a lot of Hedychium
already growing, which we would like to use if it's safe. Is anyone
already doing this?
