I live in Cairns and grow ginger in pots in full sun and water every day. First harvest last year. Planted some at a friends garden in Sydney and it has just started to shoot.

I live in Brisbane and have grown gingers, both edible and non-edible types, for many years. They are very hardy plants and succeed very well when left alone. I see on various gardening web sites conflicting information re the cultivation - one site for instance says to plant in shade, never in full sun. My edible ginger grows happily in full sun!! I water mine because the soil dries out but a friend has his in pots and they grow just as well. So, give it a go. Buy good looking ginger in the supermarket, break the rhizome into several parts each with at least one bud on.

I discovered ginger growing in amongst my celery this summer. Thriving! Very surprised to see it actually as i don't planting it. I am in Melbourne.

This is my fourth year of owning a Ginger plant. It is a Beautiful plant and gows very well. I bought it at a supermarket in the produce section so I'm guessing it's edible? how if any way is it related to the red ginger plant that grown in parksduring summer months?
