Blue Turmeric Rhizomes
Blue turmeric (Cucurma caesia) is the most potent amongst all and is a rare variety of Turmeric. The roots are blue in color. Blue turmeric contains the higher concentrations of curcumin of than orange variety. The rhizome is rich in camphor in curcuminoids, phenolics, flavonoids, certain proteins and amino acids, essential oil and alkaloids.
TURMERIC PLANT CARE:
Choose a morning sun exposure with afternoon part shade and moist clay to part clay soil.
Plant the roots ~ 2-4 inches deep.
Maintain adequate moisture and dig the roots up in late fall or early winter when the plant is dormant.
These plants generally go dormant if temperatures fall below 50° F (10 C.).
The plants will grow back in spring, when the outdoor temperature rises above 50° F.
To keep the plants alive and healthy, keep them warm inside with light for at least 6-8 hrs.
Do not give up on them even if they wither during winter. These will come back naturally. We will replace the plant for first season if these do not grow back until summer in spite of indoor care.
