the two years before. They have a wonderful scent.

This is larkspur and it does reseed in the garden. We've recently gotten
some other larkspur that has little bunny shapes in the flowers. I'll

Butterfly ginger is always a reliable plant in the south and almost everyone
loves the fragrance. This one is hedychium coronarium.

I believe this is Kahili ginger. It is a yellow color, which is very
attractive in the shade garden. I always pick one to give to visitors
so they can smell the wonderful fragrance.

This lovely flower is a peacock ginger. It grows in the shade and has
new blooms every day. The botanical name is kaempferia laotica 'Brush
Strokes'.

Mickey Mouse taro is not for everyone. My mom thinks variegated plants
look diseased, and this one even more so. Some edges of the leaves
look like plastic that is melted in a flame.
