Hey gardeners!! I just got back from Atlantic Ave. Nursery. They have several varieties of gingers for $8.99. In stock were salmon colored Hedychium coccineum 'Aurantiacum', Hedychium gardneranum (yellow and fragrant) and a white butterfly ginger. These are taller than I am, and the pots were full to the point of popping apart! Pat was interested in getting rid of these and may cut you a deal for multiple purchases. Worth stopping by if you're looking for these!

Nice gingers at Atlantic Ave. Nursery, Raleigh

where is this place located? plmk thxs
It is in Raleigh on Atlantic Ave., above the beltline (440)
Bev-did they have any coldhardy palms or other tropicals?
tigerlily,
I didn't notice any palms, but then again, I wasn't looking for that. They did have canna and maybe a banana or two. I did see that they had some great pomegranates at a pretty decent price. Beautiful orange blossoms and some had fruit already.
Are you joining us at Plant Delights on Sat? You know Tony has palms, gingers, bananas, and other tropicals...Pricey, but always worth a look.
You know, Deb...that goes for you, too:-))
