Ginger is a well-known root modification. It's a rhizome, which is a type of underground stem. The rhizome stores nutrients and energy for the plant's growth. From the rhizome, new shoots and roots emerge, allowing ginger to propagate and thrive.
Leaves
Ginger leaves are long and narrow with a pointed tip. They have a deep green color and grow directly from the rhizome. These leaves play a crucial role in photosynthesis, producing energy for the plant.
