Tumeric

• Turmeric is a rhizomatous herbaceous perennial plant which is part of the ginger family
• It grows best in light or partial shade and needs fertile, well-drained soil
• Plant the rhizomes at an angle, with one side about 7cm deep, and the other just below the surface
• Cover with compost and press down firmly. Water well until the ground around the rhizome is soaked; keep it moist until green shoots appear - can take anything from 20–45 days.
