Ginger

Zingiber officianale

 

This is the most known and used ginger among the varieties. This plant can grow up to 4 feet tall and provides rhizomes that are the part commonly used in cuisine across the world. Rhizomes can be harvested young for a milder flavor known as baby or green ginger. Or it can be harvested when mature for a more robust flavor when cooking. Ginger is in the same family, the Zingiberaceae family, as turmeric and cardamom! Research has shown that ginger can be helpful with nausea and vomiting and is popular amongst pregnant women. Ginger plants put out cone-like structures that display small flowers, but ginger grown in containers rarely blooms.

  • “My live plants were packed like they belonged in Ft Knox. 😂 They really were packed beautifully. Only one plant, a bee balm, is questionable but signs that it will recover are happening. All in all I am thrilled with my plants and seeds. Some of my coreopsis have already sprouted!”

  • “I’ve ordered seeds from Whitwam Organics 3 or 4 times now. I love the simple packaging, clear planting guidelines, and variety they offer. Great germination rates!! The bare root plants I’ve ordered have come healthy, so healthy that the wild rabbits always approve of my menu upgrades! 😂🐰”
