My dear friend and follower AnnaZad did a pic. of a blooming ginger plant. See: http://365project.org/anazad511/my-3rd-year-ove/2014-10-01
And an explanation to grow new ones. I just did grow this one from a small piece of Ginger we use in the kitchen. After this I`ve it planted it in a pot with good soil and has become bigger with new leaves.
Look at the many roots and how tall it's already. good luck with it. Hans always tries to grow an avocado tree, but it get's to tall and spindle and the leaves always fall off.
Oh, wow!!! This is amazing!!! So you started with just a small piece of the ginger root!!! Your thumb must be really green!!! you grow such interesting and beautiful plants!!!
Well, how about that! It reminds me of how we used to take the pits of avocados and put them in water and grow a plant that way. You have a green thumb!
