I've grown them a few years, they're easy.
For winters, after the second year they grow huge underground, when the shoots die back just dig them up and put a bulb with a knot back in the ground for 2 years later. As long as it's below the frost line it will be fine. You'll lose a few every year, but once you get them propagated out you'll never run out. They're reasonably resilient plants.

What zone are you in?
12b, so a good place for tropical plants, but I still get freezes and the south is generally a good place for most hot weather plants. If you're up north you'd need a greenhouse for turmeric.
