General information about Ginger (Zingiber):
Ginger (Zingiber) is one of the most used spices in the world. But Ginger is also interesting because of its flowers. These appear in late summer, just above the ground, although the plant itself may be a meter tall by then. The flowers of Ginger can be used in salads and in stir-fry dishes. Ginger likes a spot in the sun but avoid strong midday rays. The soil should be fertile and normally moist. In order to prevent the tubers rotting good drainage is essential. You could always plant Ginger in a raised bed.
