Turmeric and ginger ... we use 'em often. We have a large bag of turmeric. Never considered growing it. Unlike Bear and Cheryl, I don't have a green thumb (even my silk plants die ).
Growing turmeric: Did you know it takes almost a year to grow. However, lots of benefits to growing your own -- you can also use the leaves. http://www.ruralsprout.com/grow-turmeric/ |
