My Globba, a member of the Ginger family, is finally blooming. I bought the tubers last spring, expecting bloom out doors, but the plants dawdled and when I brought them inside to escape the cooler, shorter days, they decided to spend their lives as houseplants. By rights they should be bloomed out by now and ready for a winter's sleep. But here they are, just beginning, and when they flower the blooms last for months. I was looking forward to see my "Dancing Girls" dance with the bees and the hummingbirds. That must wait for another year.
My source for Globba was Aloha Tropicals. They sell online. Click on above photo for a better view.
