Cool... i need to move a pot I overwintered in the basement up to the greenhouse and see if it survived. I'm just experimenting... i planted purchased roots last Spring, and gave up when after 60 days, there was no sign of growth. Weedes grew up around the pots due to our incessant rains ftom the beginning of July on, but wgen I was cleaning up in esrly September, I noticed tropical looking leaves... and discovered the ginger had finally grown!

Have you tried tumeric? I got some to grow and kept it going for about two years before I lost it. It didn't recover from its winter hibernation the third year. I didn't get to harvest any because I kept trying to up the population of growing tubers, but it was fun and a pretty plant.
