Wilting and shriveling leaves My Variegated Ginger plant was watered by the nursery the day I purchased it and Greg is not recommending watering it again for another 3 days (9 days in total between watering.) The plant has been under a grow light since I purchased it. The bottom leaves have dried and fallen off while leaves closer to the top of the plant are beginning to do the same thing, turning to a paper-like consistency. Does anyone have any experience with these guys? Any advice?
