I love this ginger. Mine didn't bloom this year; beautiful and full foliage. Wonder why?

Mine went crazy with blooms. I'll see if I can find the pics later.

I also love this ginger. I see them ALL OVER Florida and I saw quite a few huge ones in flower at the San Diego Zoo as well. Wish I could find them at a good size and price around here!

After seeing those pictures I will have to acquire some. Very pretty.
