Hi all,

I have always wanted to get a ginger plant and happen to find one this weekend. One of the local plant stores here (atlanta) had these huge shell gingers in five gallon pots for $15 bucks. I know I will be lucky if it surives the winter here but going to stick in the ground and try.

Since this thing is as wide as a small table and very root bound, I wanted to divide it up into at least 2 sections.

Any danger in just kinda choping it in half? Anyone ever divided one?

Thanks!
