Sandy I never saw any around here till I planted this
Hedychium coronarium
"White Butterfly Ginger"
that a dear friend gave me before she passed away. She gave me a handfull of rhizomes twice they grew into clumps where yellow spots are on pic. I decided to separate it and instead of two clumps I planted two rows all along the back of the flower bed, a row of lilies in front of that, row of hosta in front of that, and a row of Hardy Garden Amaryllis all along the front. It smells so good just a couple cut stems in a vase will smell up 2-3 rooms. I think you can eat the rhizomes like indian ginger as well. In memory of her I pass on starts to everybody I can. It's not winter hardy in your zone but a large container full would be beautiful and attract those moths. In winter just put container where it won't freeze and forget it till spring then start watering again and it will pop back up.
If you would like some get a priority mail padded flat rate envelope like in pic. Pre pay for it bout $10, address it and fold it up and put into a standard envelope and mail it to me at...

I'll be more than happy to stuff it full and send it back to you. Will only cost ya the $10 and whatever a first class stamp costs now so say $11 total. The envelope is padded and is one rate any weight so it won't cost any more. I have yellow Angel Trumpet cuttings rooted right now to. I can put one of those in to if ya want. Below is what I'm talking about.
I know it's not a good time of year but if you want some just save my address and mail the envelope to me this spring or whenever you are ready for it.
No need to even tell me ya sent it I'll remember when it comes in the mail and I'll send back to you probably the next day after I receive the padded envelope. 🙂
