I travel 12 miles to find a green grocer with acceptable fruits & veggies. Regular grocery stores only offer a very limited selection of pitiful, dubious merchandise. That doesn't suit our needs. I just know that i saw some of those at my favorite green grocer the other day. I'll get myself some next time I am there. However, the article doesn't seem to indicate if that should grow in full sun, shade, part-shade. Any ideas? I have grown ginger in full shade, producing a delightful 5-foot tall plant with long leaves and a white plume at the top. It shared a 24-inch pot with large philodendrons.
I hate working with turmeric because of its staining power. I handle said powder like nuclear waste, wearing rubber gloves and protecting my counter with a paper towel before I even pull out the turmeric powder out of the spice rack. As the article says: we have been warned.
Sylvain.
