Many thanks, Sherrye, and I appreciate it!! Do you remember the song? Pretty much says it all, and mine are just beginning to bloom!!White ginger blossoms
Cool and fragrant
Sweeter than the rose
Fairer too than moonlight
White ginger blossoms
From the mountains
Fill the thirsty air
With exotic fragrance rare
Round your lovely throat
You wear my ginger lei
Each white petal nestles close
And longs to say 'let me stay here'
White ginger blossoms
Cool and fragrant
By a mountain pool
Guard their sweetness all for you #1646842
