This is the Ginger(pinkiered gave me) that grew and grew last year but never bloomed last year and I thought it was dead but I had another one in a pot that I was going to plant welllllllll, its not dead butttttt.
The one in the pot didn't bloom last year either so is this Ginger ? Sharon thought it would be vanilla and would bloom white.Its a redish wine bloom on both and as it comes through the ground its trying to bloom.
This is one of my 99 cent store plants.
This is another on from the 99 cent store.
This plant is from my friend Erlene's yard. I visited her yesterday.
My corn and squash plants are growing really good.
Want be long now before I'm eating tomatos.
I have more pictures but must go to work now.I hope all of you have a great day.

I have no idea what a ginger bloom should look like, sorry. Those 99 cent plants of yours are lovely! Is the reddish one some kind of rubber plant? Your veggies are looking good.

Look at you. Aren't you lucky to be having tomatoes soon. Is that aloe vera in the back ground of the 2nd pict? Do you leave it in the ground & over winter it? They only sell them in pots here as house plants. You always do good on your purchases.

Boy your tomatos do look good. I was lucky enough to get a late and very unusual snow and freeze. Gives you an opportunity to replant. Nice plants.
