Hi Sherry, I don't have Dr. Moy, but here is some information about it: http://www.gingersrus.com/DataSheet.php?PID=4030 It says that it is hardy to Zone 7, and I assume that it must die back when you get freezes; yes? I do think that they love lots of water. Did you fertilizer fairly regularly? I'm not an expert on gingers at all and have only grown them for two years now, but I did treat my Butterfly ginger and the other cultivars the same. Mine got full sun where they are planted and lots of water. I did fertilize a couple of times a month from spring to fall.
