And then there is the yard!!!!




It was a challenge to focus on unpacking boxes when the yard is a calling my name. We have 1/3rd of an acre of exotic tropicals. Take a look at a few of our gems. The shell ginger (Alpinia zerumbet) is a member of the ginger family. Native to Indonesia, it is now grown throughout the world as an ornamental. We are blessed to have a huge hedge that our neighbor has grown on his oasis next door. So one side of our property has this hedge of fragrant ginger.
