Growing root ginger

BTW : I'm now trying to germinate some juniper berry seeds - from berries bought from the supermarket spice section, of course ! Like you, Gregory, I have a habit of trying to grow plants from the bits and pieces left over from my shopping basket. Your post reminded me of a wonderful little book I was given in the late 70s when I was a student with one window sill and zero money. I think it's called 'The Pip Book' by Keith Mossman (I'm afraid I'm not at home at the moment so can't check) and gives advice on growing anything from citrus trees from pips to lychees and pineapple tops. I'm almost sure it's still in print. Good luck with the ginger and juniper. I'm a bit worried you might be disappointed with the juniper as the berries sold in Britain generally come from places like Hungary and have dried out quite a lot before they reach the supermarket shelves. Could you not get some berries from someone who has a juniper bush in their garden? Cheers Deborah |
