I have a decorative plant which is a member of the ginger family,
Can you use the plant in the same fashion as ginger?

g'day bob,

as far as i know the answer is no!

if yo go to an organic food shop and buy some raw ginger corms then
plant them you will have a never ending supply of it.

i would suggest you look for gal-n-gal, it is the indonesian version
of ginger for me the same taste, but then taste might depend on
growing conditions?

at least with gal-n-gal it doesn't die off for winter as ginger does
and it is fairly frost hardy and drought resistant.
