A once-weekly deep watering is sufficient in most climates, but you might need to increase your watering cadence in especially hot or dry weather.

If temperatures remain above 50 degrees Fahrenheit throughout the year, there’s a good chance it will flower continuously. Red button ginger is more hardy than it’s given credit for, and it can survive (though not flower) during chilly temperatures. After light frosts, it generally wilts and bounces back. After a hard freeze, it can sometimes grow back from its root system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 id=\"mntl-sc-block_1-0-27\" class=\"comp u-how-to-title-align mntl-sc-block lifestyle-sc-block-subheading mntl-sc-block-subheading\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"mntl-sc-block-subheading__text\"\u003eFertilizer\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp id=\"mntl-sc-block_1-0-28\" class=\"comp text-passage u-how-to-title-align mntl-sc-block lifestyle-sc-block-html mntl-sc-block-html\"\u003eYour red button ginger plant can thrive without \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.thespruce.com\/best-fertilizers-4154249\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003efertilizer\u003c\/a\u003e if you’ve planted it in enriched soil with organic matter like \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.thespruce.com\/compost-black-gold-for-your-garden-soil-1403130\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ecompost\u003c\/a\u003e.
