I live i south Australia. I live in the Murraylands. I have bought some ginger which still have the tops on them. Can I plant them now. Or do I have to wait until September. If I have to wait., how do I keep the ones I bought for planting out in Spring.

You could plant them now but if you have frosty winters you may be better to store them in a pot of damp sand until spring.
