This rare and unusual herb comes highly recommended: it is said that Confucius recommended ginger and used it to flavor all of his food! We are pleased to be able to add ginger to our large selection of rare and unusual herbs. A native to tropical Asia, this rhizomatous perennial herb produces a plump yellow rhizome that is well known for both its medicinal and culinary uses.

Ginger grows best in rich, moist well draining soils. It appreciates warm temperatures, and its biggest issue is rot. The plump, yellow rhizomes can be due in late summer to early fall. Ginger is a handsome plant with yellow flowers and purple 'lips' as well as green bracts.

A well known culinary herb, Ginger is essential to Asian cuisine as well as Caribbean and African cooking. Described as both tender and sweet, as well as tangy and spicy, this herb has a distinctive flavor that can be used in all sorts of dishes: curries, stews, soups, salads, pickles and chutneys. In a powdered form, it adds a warm and spicy flavor, and when crystallized, it is used in many types of baked goods. Ginger oil has many commercial uses, most well known is in ginger ale.

Very Satisfied

I was a bit skeptic that my ginger plant was shipped through USPS. We had some warm days and it took 4 days to get to me. However the plant was well packaged and the roots were kept moist. I planted my ginger plant the same day and I am happy to say that it is doing well. It was well worth the price I paid for it. I also appreciated the instructional pamphlet. I would not hesitate ordering live plants from Florida Nursery again. Thank you
