I grow it in the Bellinger Valley, south of Coffs Harbour and near the coast, Daniel, it should be fine where you are.

Ginger are grown from the root you can buy at any green grocer just check that it has at least one bud at the tip if more than one bud is present them the root can be separated

We have just moved to Tully North Queensland and was thinking of putting in some Ginger on our acreage , would you think it could be too wet up here, and where could we purchase some

I'm in cairns and it grows pretty good here, as long as it has good drainage. I keep mine in a pot, and they say it doesn't like full sun but mine grows well in it. You should be able to grow it from a piece you buy at the supermarket:)

I am also in Gauteng. Will it grow outside seeing that we get frost in the winter?

Bury it and keep it in a small pot of dry or very slightly damp soil for everyday use. Always keeps fresh , never any waste and always a supply . A young Taiwanese couple showed us.

after a couple of weeks a piece of ginger i bought from a green grocer has just sprouted. i have it in a small pot inside a homemade 'hot box' i made. the hot box is about 1 m cube with a 25w light bulb inside to keep it warm [approx 25 deg c]. i initially made the box to keep my ginger beer plant 'alive' to make ginger beer throughout winter - my family loves the stuff!
