Upright Wild Ginger - Saruma henryi Well, sorry for the bad photos, but I didn&#039;t intend to share these shots. I only took them because the plant reminded me of ginger and I wanted to find out what it was. It turns out that it is endemic to China and is listed as endangered.<br />

Habitat: Growing (and I assume planted) near a forest edge<br />
