Sweet Awapuhi

This is my little bit of Hawaii in Sacramento. The ti plant in the background is growing out of its pot and needs to be re-set. The white ginger in the foreground finally bloomed this year, after two years of nurture. Okay, so the leaves are a little chewed up - but I can't tell you how nice it feels to look out the patio doors and see all that green! The plumeria is also thriving, but declined to bloom this summer. Nothing here likes to eat plumeria.

One of Pocket Curves' employees is from Tonga, so we share stories about the plants we have from "home". I showed her this photo of the ginger, and she just melted! Guess which one she is in the staff photo.
