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...

I do love wide shots. It's easier to get a sense of a garden when more is incorporated in the frame. Dogwood 'wolf-eyes' has always been a favorite of mine in your garden and todays soft color pallet with the pink rose and blue hydrangea is particularly fetching.
