I ordered this ‘Blue Ginger’ from Logee’s Greenhouses in 2017. It finally bloomed.
It has gotten bigger these past six years. I have potted it up numerous times. It does have lovely purple edged leaves and purple striped stems, so the bloom is not it’s only attribute.
Still, I was pleased to see that something good happened while I was away. Ian turned over a few pots and broke one. Nothing else was damaged. We are fortunate.
Waiting six years for this Dichorisandra thyrsiflora to bloom is nothing extraordinary here. The Flower is playing the long game in her garden.
Next post will be about my two Century plants. Now, that is a long game!
FLOWER is home again

You are very patient. I do have some gingers that never bloomed. They are called hidden ginger, maybe I just don’t see them.
