    Tetrapanax flowers. Not sure if this always happens, but I find my plants drop the big leaves of summer before they flower.

    This one has though retained the summer leaves, possibly a different strain?

    It is a good year for A. zygomeris, must be over 10ft tall.

    And the Hedychium seeds are still coming along.

        @pete your flowering one is probably T. papyrifer


        I think is T. Rex going by the deeply cut lobes.

          I did get two different plants from different sources, I can't say that I have noticed much difference in leaf shape or size to be honest.

          I didn't realise the plants were invasive when I planted them, got suckers coming up long way from the plants.
