Update on Turmeric Plant

An update on my turmeric plant. I harvested all of my turmeric in early February, in my previous post here , and replanted some rhizomes for starting over. Less than two months later, the turmeric plant is thriving well and a new young plant has started to sprout from the rhizomes roots.


Turmeric plants. These are two separate plants with separate rhizomes which I replanted about two months ago. Seems to be growing well, such a pleasure to see this from my kitchen window.  :o)



My never-ending supply of spring onions! I have received a couple of emails regarding my post "How I Plant Sprouted Onions" which I posted back in September 2011. It is wonderful to know that the tutorial has helped a number of home gardeners to achieve the maximum harvest of spring onions from their onions. Thank you for reading my tutorial and for letting me know that it has worked for you too! 



Harvested some of the spring onions, and made some ....





Ham, spring onions and cheddar buns. I use sandwich ham for these buns. Chicken Sandwich Ham can be bought from any supermarket. These buns are really soft, fluffy and tasty.  The spring onions may be replaced with chives from your garden. If you would like to try out these buns, you may get the recipe over at my kitchen, here. Happy baking and enjoy your buns!


Have a great weekend everyone!


Happy Gardening!

  1. Finally, I managed to find these jewels in Tesco. Have just gone through your tutorial a second time and ready to go plant them. Have yet to decide how to use them... I have 2-3 weeks to decide. :) Thank you for sharing.

  5. Oh Joyce, your Tumeric plants have nestled in quite nicely. Kudos to you! I'll be working in the garden tomorrow and I can't wait! I haven't planted any Tumeric, yet but the tiny Basil seeds that I harvested from last year's plants are peeking through:)

    Thank you so much for sharing, I love visiting your Little Potted Garden:)
