Answer:
"Ginger (Zingiber officinale). Commonly called ginger root, the edible portion is actually a rhizome, or underground stem."
"Ginger is a flowering plant whose rhizome, ginger root or ginger, is widely used as a spice and a folk medicine. It is a herbaceous perennial which grows annual pseudostems about one meter tall bearing narrow leaf blades. "
