    For a gardening site- I thought that they'd talk more about growing it!
    I just went to an Asian Grocery store, bought a fresh root- and now it's coming up. Lots of folks grow "curcumas" or "hidden Gingers" they have beautiful flowers.

    Can it be grown outside in zone 5?

    That I would doubt... Most people rank it around a Zone 8.

    I don't usually write about 'growing' plants, I write more about their medicinal value and their history. And since I don't live in a zone where this plant will grow, planting and growing it is not something I know a thing about.

    It's good to know that you planted some, though. Maybe you could let us know how it does.

    Lots of people grow Curcumas- (just search it in plantfiles) but I'm just not sure how "tumeric" bought from the store will come out...
