#brazilianginger

Beautiful

@nej I always think of you when it comes to this. I was confused between native and Brazilian and you clarified it for me

I love this one, it's a beauty

#bluebrazilianginger #beefood as it’s #purple

That's a lovely colour 💜💜💜

I have a blue ginger plant too. So pretty. I was lucky to stumble across one out of the blue. I had been looking for one initially after my aunt passed away. Blue ginger was her favourite flower

Looking beautiful. Mine hasn't budded up yet.

#bluebrazilianginger new shoots

My favourite plant.

#bee coming in for landing on #bluebrazilianginger

Great timing & beautiful plant 😍

It’s so easy to grow in shade. @jeatacake

Got a fair bit of shade here, but not the Brazilian warmth! 😀

@cyndi sure is. Blooms for ages

Took me awhile to find bee🐝 but I got him, lovely ginger grate pic sussanah

Beautiful. The blue banded bees love em

@cyndi no unfortunately. Looks like it should have one hey.

@nej @columbiariver @karmey thanks Laura and Nej. I took a shot of native ginger last year with a blue banded bee buzzing. You id for me. Legend.

@joan323

Wow.. I can’t remember seeing that one before Sussanah.. beautiful..

#nativeginger

Alpinia caerulea?

Yes.

@Sussanah @brightcolours I think this one is Brazilian blue ginger not alpinia Caerulea

I'll have to double check. The blue one might be from mum and dad's place. @nej @brightcolours

@dhawl1

#blueginger

Is it the native one? Or this one: http://www.burkesbackyard.com.au/fact-sheets/in-the-garden/flowering-plants-shrubs/blue-ginger/#.WCahgWUnGrU

Yes it's #blueginger #dichorisandrathyrsiflora

Yes Katie it's the same one as on burkes backyard @brightcolours

Yes

@gjones @karmey @brightcolours I always thought it was native ginger. No idea why I called it Brazilian.
