Anticipation
This is exciting! I have wanted an orange ginger lily for as long as I can remember. I tried growing it in Alabama and never got a bloom. I do have a white ginger ( Hedychium spicatum ) that has had a few blooms. A few years ago, someone told me that 'Tara' is the only one that will reliably bloom here. I don't know if that it true but I finally got one this year (thank you Dancing Oaks!). Planted in April next to our South foundation and given ample water, I can hardly believe it, but it looks like a bloom is imminent - in its first year! I'm holding my breath...

Yes, your new Ginko fits in perfectly.
ReplyDeleteA fabulous new addition! Happy new tree to you!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic view and congrats on your new addition. I love the shape of Ginkgo leaves, and "upright, conical habit" is so perfect for a smaller gardens. Wonderful choice.
ReplyDeleteI love the colour changes in the trees. You are lucky to have a neighbor with a maple. Wish I had one! Groetjes,

Excellent choice. They really light up on a sunny autumn day. That maple across the street will have some serious competition.
