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

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!

Life - Some assembly required, As is no warranty, Batteries not included, Instructions shipped separately and are frequently wrong!

Kentucky Bourbon - It may not solve the problem but it helps to make it tolerable!

Statistics - Data that analyst twist to support the insane opinions of those that pay them.
