Turmeric


While traveling in Malaysia, in the market I saw, for the first time, turmeric flowers.  Local people use them in salad or soup. Knowing the health benefit of turmeric, I am keen to grow it to use the root and now, also the flowers.

I buried a few pieces of root with buds in April and now, when weather is finally boiling hot, they shoot up giant leaves, quite a sight. Don't know how long I have to wait for flowers to come?
