Gardening is sometimes a leap of faith. I’d ordered a pair of hazelberts, and received what appeared to be two sticks with some roots attached. Described as “bare root,” I stuck them in a couple of pots (above), crossed my fingers, and hoped for the best.
A month later, and patience rewarded — the sticks are now showing signs of new growth. My fingers, however, remain crossed.
A friend had also given me a piece off his ginger plant to root, and I was thrilled to see that it’s also showing signs of life. Many thanks to Daphne’s crew of gardeners who gather each Monday to share their harvests and harvests-to-be, including their own experiments with growing ginger.

Thanks for stopping by over at my place. This is a nice blog and I’ll be poking around a bit! Those Greens are looking great! Cheers!
Welcome and enjoy!
Your ginger is looking good. Will you be keeping it in the container or planting it in the ground?
It’s looking promising, indeed! I was planning to keep it in the container, and bring it in for the winter… if it lasts that long!
