How old is this clump?

These are amazing plant. I love the vibrant colour and where I live they grow so well.

@brightcolours about 8 years

@rosegardengirl they are easy care and I love them

22/1/24 flower buds forming

One of my favourites but had some renovations so might have to go. 😢😢😢

Oh no @rosegardengirl 😕

One of the ones I planted in the garden has been flowering for a couple of weeks now.

@rosegardengirl that's a shame.

@brightcolours I envy your climate for my tropicals

And I enjoy your selection of garden plants!

Tough love here = only just showing signs of new growth…

Yes @brightcolours they are deciduous here in Sydney and start flowering late summer

What’s your lowest temperature during winter? It’s about 7C up here.

@brightcolours it can get to 2c on the odd occasion

Thanks everyone for the comments @Soph1e @kristina2 @sansue @dan5584 @ausgardentags

I didn’t know the “ginger” plants had so many really beautiful plants. Love this purple!!!😊

Thank you @terrimclaughlin I love it too. Although this has the common name of blue ginger, it is not a ginger but more relaxed to the wandering jew and tradescantia 😊

Another very cool ginger?? Do they grow wild there?!??😊💕

Are they a bulb nej??😊💕

I can’t remember but I don’t think mine was?🤭😊💕

@terrimclaughlin these don't grow wild here. It grows from a .rhizome

Thank you @suerichards

12 /2 /18 blue ginger loving the humidity and heat

I think of you when I see this plant coz you helped me ages ago re native/Brazilian

@Sussanah I think I remember now. I love this plant and look forward to it every year 😊

Can you send us some humidity & heat!

@Denise16 coming right up 😉 but it might take six months to get there

That’s why I have several in different spots. Lovely

Very good strategy @Sussanah

1 /2 /18 blue Brazilian ginger starting to bud

One of my favourites.

Me too @rosegardengirl

#autumnblooms #autumn #blooming

A showstopper!! #dichorisandrathyrsiflora

Another "must have"!!

Thank you @brightcolours @latebloomer @MTurner. Debra no this is not perfumed nor edible it actually is not related to any gingers

@latebloomer we are all learning all the time, that's what is so great about gardening. These are deciduous perennials so you might get away with a sheltered position. The common name is what confuses a lot of people

I like this def on my wish list doing a bit of garden reno so i have a space for it now.😊

They are great and fuss free @errolly

Don't feel embarrassed for sure Deborah! @latebloomer, I'm a newbie at this too. You can read books all day but, the best practical info comes from experience, you have to talk to people who've done it they know. I was going to ask if it was edible, but you beat me to it. You guys are up a little earlier then us

@lesliecole49 @latebloomer there's a lot of stuff I don't know too 😀😊

I've really only had the opportunity in the last 10 years Deborah, and mostly houseplants and small plots at the few places available. I just bought a big never gardened yard with huge potential and years of practice ahead of me. @latebloomer @nej and I will be doing very little vegetables.

Pretty 💕

Thank you @carolgs
