Thanks for the hint on how to keep the GINGER... I hated to think of throwing out the rest of my Ginger Tree... Never send my husband to the store... If you tell him to get one thing he brings home two... if you say I need a pound he thinks two pounds are better.... LOL... so I have the ginger tree

Thanks for the information
