RESUMO
Ginger is a perennial flowering plant, native to Southern Asia, and introduced to many parts of the globe. It is now cultivated throughout the humid tropics including the Caribbean (Jamaica, Guyana and Haiti), Asia, and Africa. Ginger's botanical name is Zingiber officinale Roscoe. Though sometimes called a root, ginger is in fact a swollen underground stem - a rhizome.
