I was sold this as Hedychium griffithianum, in dry tuber form, back in April, which might explain why it's struggling into flower now. I'm not sure it is griffithianum, though, as it doesn't have the distinctive extended stamens... #Hedychium #zingiberaceae #gardens #Cornwall

Fern-like new leaves unfurling on Banksia attenuata 'dwarf'. Another beauty from Penberth Plants @PenberthClaire #proteaceae #Banksia #gardens #Cornwall

Glorious golden light to end the day, highlighting Canna 'Pretoria' being set off beautifully by our neighbours Aster/Symphyotrichum. #aster #symphyotrichum #michaelmasdaisy #cannalillies #flowers #Cornwall #gardening

Liriodendron tulipifera grows quickly! I planted this tree in 2018 at around 5ft. It seems to double in size each year - 1st is today, 2nd pic is 2022. #tree #Liriodendron #tuliptree #gardening #Cornwall #RoselandParc

A little ray of sunshine on a dreary, wet day. Hedychium maximum is flowering! First year in the ground & about a month later than last year. #Hedychium #zingiberaceae #exotics #gardening #Cornwall #RoselandParc

We had a frost in the valley at the bottom of the gardens this morning... thankfully, it didn't touch the gardens higher up, and the Brugmansia remained unscathed! #gardens #exotics #Brugmansia #Cornwall #RoselandParc
