Edible White Ginger: Fragrant Elegance
Culinary Purposes:
The Edible White Ginger plant (Hedychium coronarium) is primarily valued for its ornamental beauty rather than culinary use. While the flowers of this plant are edible and can be used to add a delicate, floral touch to dishes, they are not commonly utilized in cooking. Instead, the plant is cherished for its stunning white blooms and sweet, intoxicating fragrance that fills the air.

Fruitscaping with Herbs & Veggies
Every good kitchen garden needs to have an herb section. A walk through a garden planted with herbs is truly a sensual experience. Their beautifully textured leaves invite you to stop and touch them, and then reward you with a delightful array of heavenly scents. Herbs can serve many functions in the edible landscape, creepers like oregano, mints and thyme make great ground cover. Low growers like sage, chives and perennial onions are good for edging flower beds and will help in insect control. Taller evergreens like rosemary are wonderful used as low hedges or for planting around the foundation of houses. Herbs also lend themselves well to being grown in containers. Tuck a few pots close to the kitchen so they’ll be handy when you need them.
Growing your own herbs is well worth the effort. The quality and flavor of fresh picked herbs is so much better than the dried products you find in the grocery store. Our climate makes it possible to grow a very wide range of herbs. The hot humid summer are perfect for herbs like basil, Thai ginger and tea camellias. Try the more Mediterranean herbs like lavender, Â sage and Thyme in the winter time, they love the cool and are less apt to succumb to fungus.
