This plant is often used for its stalks, which can be made into a number of different dishes. It is in the Polygonaceae family. Originally, the stalks were called rhubarb, but eventually the name was used for the entire plant. The leaves of the rhubarb plant are large, triangular, and inedible. Small rose-red and greenish-white flowers are grouped in clusters on the plant's branches.*
Ginger helps support digestion, and alleviates bloating and the symptoms referred to as gas.*
The ginger root is often used as a spice. Ginger itself is a flowering plant in the Zingiberaceae family. It is closely related to cardamom and turmeric. As a perennial, ginger comes back every year after dying out in the winter months. It has pale yellow flowers that have purple edges to their petals.
