I’m so grateful for all that you do. Is it alright if I ask if there will be potted turmeric this year? I am so happy you offer a waitlist! I have not had much success yet with growing turmeric from a store root, but I will keep learning as I go. Have a wonderful day!

turmeric is challenging and its hard to know what to expect. we have a population of these. It is hard to find the right time to ship them successfully. i’ll confer with staff and enable when possible. r

hello. i too am interested in getting a turmeric plant, when available. & wondering what size of pot it will need to be kept in? will a gallon pot prove large enough to accommodate it? i live in portland, oregon & plan to keep out of doors in warmer months & indoors in bright window the rest of year. thank you for all the magic that you spark !!!
