Plant it in a pot and keep it in a sunny window, or plant it outdoors if you live in a warm climate.Pretty soon it will sprout & you will have lots of nice, fresh galangal whenever you need it. Dig
some up, take a chunk, re-plant.Boron

Gernot Katzer, who graciously posted to this group the other day, has a listing of the name
variations on his pages. Either way is acceptable.www-ang.kfunigraz.ac.atgeneric frame.htmlOpen ↗
Mr. Katzer is an expert in the field and his web pages are remarkable for their depth and accuracy,
as well as their lovely pictures.Boron

If you don't want to "take care of it", you can in a jar and cover it with dry sherry, rice wine,
etc., and refrigerate. It will keep indefinitely.Wayne

You betcha. I have mine in front of my patio doors with a southern exposure.
DO NOT give it a full sun exposure out of doors, though. It needs dappled light.
