Growing more or less prostrate, the flowers are hidden as they come directly from the center on a very short footstalk and often are covered by fallen pine needles. Having no petals, the flower is formed by a brownish red three-lobed calyx, the lobes gradually fading into thread-like points. The whole of the calyx and tube are covered with fine hairs. The delightful aromatic fragrance of the crushed leaves and of the root suggesting ginger, justifies the common name.
