Our Turmeric plants are sprouted rhizomes, ready to be planted out in your garden and provide endless amounts of fresh Turmeric for the years to come.

The turmeric rhizome is used a powerful anti-inflammatory with antioxidant properties. Commonly used in Western and Eastern medicine for many health benefits.

Also a commonly used ingredient in Indian cooking for both flavour and colour.

Turmeric purchased from the local supermarket can be used to grow a plant, but with spotty results. Grocery store turmeric is often sprayed with a growth inhibitor to keep it from sprouting before it's purchased. That inhibitor also keeps it from sprouting when you stick it in a pot of soil.
