I am just outside of Brisbane. I leave my ginger in an open area until the cut ends are well dried and then store them in a polystyrene box until I need them. I usually plant the new crop around mid to late October
From the notes on this website about growing ginger. "This perennial will die down in autumn. Remove the dead leaves. In spring lift the root clumps and break them up into smaller pieces to replant" LEAVE it in the ground if you haven't dug it up already. If dug up -probably best to store in a cool dry place over winter. .
