Another seed pod on my trumpet ginger popped today! MORE SEEDS! I'm so excited to share these! I can't say enough what a delightful houseplant this is and how enamored I am with the scent of the flowers.

Keep in mind, I have a super sniffer and migraine, so generally scent is my worst nightmare. There are some plants whose *foliage* is too smelly for me (looking at you, string of dolphins, you little stinkers).

So it's almost unthinkable that not only is the scent not painful, but I really like it. Also the sap/nectar and even the pollen smells a bit like cucumber. Every part of the plant smells so good. It's no wonder it's threatened by over harvesting for perfume!

Anyway, looks like I'll be adding more packets soon.

ALMOST TRADE TIME! 😱🤩😍
