Care for Plants Upon Delivery:

A few leaves may die during shipping. Don’t worry, it’s normal!  It's still healthy and will grow new leaves. Trim old growth and repot into a larger pot to encourage new growth. Choose a container at least 12 inches (30 centimeters) wide and deep or larger if you’ll be keeping it inside. A smaller pot is fine if you’ll be transplanting it outside.

Light Requirements: 

Part Shade or Full Sun (Afternoon shade can provide relief during the hottest months.

 

Drought Tolerance/Watering: 

Handles drought and flooding, water needs based on location. More sun, more moisture needed. Water only when the soil is dry (Usually once in 5 days or 7 days)

 

Cold Tolerance: 

To save plants during the winter!

Rhizomes can be dug up and stored in a cool dark place. If you want to continue to grow your turmeric the following year, do not harvest the entire plant, instead, break or cut off a portion of the plant for use. Leave one or two stems so that the plant can regrow the following year. Mulch with loose bedding for additional cold protection. 

 

Harvesting Instructions:

Rhizomes will continue to expand until the temperatures drop into the low 50s. It is time to harvest when the leaves turn yellow/brown. After that, they will hold in the soil until they are killed by frost. Plants grown in pots can be moved indoors before the first frost. Wash plants by hosing off soil outdoors.
