Gingers do not just refer to the edible gingers. The botanic name of ginger family is 'Zingiberaceae', which means horn-root.
Gingers vary in height and size. All of them have rhizome, underground stem, which turns upwards transformed into an erect leafy shoot.
Ginger flowers are colourful and fragrant.
