Hi Evan,
despite the five days in the mail and the hot back of a mail truck, my gingers survived and are sprouting out new growth. I'm pleased. I had also ordered another kaempferia variety named 'alva' which they didn't have but I received a call yesterday from parched Texas that they found one and are shipping it. The nursery is struggling because their lake has dried up and they need to handwater everything lest everything dies. That's how the alva came into view.
My other big gingers and heliconias are all doing great and are in bloom.
Fred
