It’s official…gingers are my new favorite plants. The peach butterfly ginger (Hedychium Kinkako) decided to bloom today:
The flowers will open up even wider over the next few days, making the stem appear covered with peach colored butterflies. Y’know, hence the name.

Yummmm. That picture is why one gingers have been my favorite for a while now. My butterfly gingers are currently gearing up for another round of blooming. Yeay!
