Ginger is the name of the entire plant.
The bulbous parts you see in shops are actually called 'Rhizomes', however most places call them 'ginger root' to avoid confusion(the actual roots grow out of the Rhizomes, and they are rarely used in food).
The leaves can be used to flavour food, and the flowers are also edible.
The roots of a plant are responsible for absorbing water and minerals from the soil. This process is essential for the plant's growth and survival.
The ginger plant (Zingiber officinale) is the most ginger thing living. It is a flowering plant whose underground stem, or rhizome, is used as a spice and for its medicinal properties.

It depends. If the wild ginger your talking about is a spice, then yes. The spice ginger comes from a flower. But not red ginger also known as ginger flower or alpinia purpurata. Hmmm...well if you are talking about spice ginger, then it is a flowering plant. The ginger comes from the tuber which it grows underground. The ginger you see in the supermarket is called Jamaican ginger. The problem here is the word flower. a flower is only part of a plant but in common usage has become the word for flowering plant. In answer to the question I think, wild ginger is a plant that has flowers.
No, ginger is a plant, or part of a plant. It contains both acidic and basic components. The main component of the essential oil of ginger is zingiberene, which is a hydrocarbon; neither an acid nor an alkaline.
Underground Stem
The rhizome is the part of ginger that will grow into a new plant. It is a swollen underground stem that produces roots and shoots to develop into a new ginger plant. This rhizome contains stored nutrients that help the new plant establish itself and grow.
