I took this picture of my MIL's Labor Day weekend. She lives an hour north of New Orleans. I looked at my mothers the other day and hers has been blooming for quite a while now. Today I walked down the hill to try and find a bed I planted last fall and I have one I planted and its about to bloom. We built a now house and that bed was almost completely covered in weeds and morning glories taller than me. It was a little scary trekking down there to it (snakes). All I could see was my banana plants growing out of the top of the weeds. It was a mess. I got it all cleaned, now I'll probably get some burned leaves but I'll get to see the blooms hopefully. Since the ginger hasn't had any attention or extra water it's not near as tall as it should be but it still has some buds. I'll go get a picture of it in a minute. Here's MIL ginger.
