Mailorder source for fresh turmeric roots?

Anyone?

I've googled around quite a bit, and am unable to come up with a
source...

A source in the States would be the way to go to avoid customs
hassles..

Thanks in advance!

In times past, I was unable to find a source online, but did find one
locally at an East Indian market. Many Asian markets also carry it.

Once you have some, take a piece at least 3 inches long and put it in
a pot of dirt in bright light, but not direct sunlight. It will
flourish outdoors doors in temperate zones or inside. When you need
some, dig a bit up, cut off what you need & re-plant the remainder.

I just found a whole bunch of them in the produce section at my local
asian market. (In Austin). It appears they are in season. ;-) I did not
get any but I plan to, and I'm going to stick some of them into some
pots just for grins and see how they grow......

If they are still there next time I go, I s'pose you could talk me into
mailing you some.

I'm in Texas.

That works for ginger root too.
