"Everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it." -Confucious
Asaram canadense
is a lot of fun, but
it
doesn't particularly like the sun.
You’ll often find it
in very rich soil, and growing it doesn't have to be a turmoil.
Its life begins as a tiny seed, if you
find it in your garden don't mistake it as a weed.
Canadian wild ginger is the most common
name, and as you may guess it is far from tame
It is native to North America, mostly in
the east, dig up the roots to use as flavor for your feast.
I hope this poem makes you want to learn
more, and I assure you this ginger is not a bore.

Asarum
canadense
(as-AIR-um, ka-na-DEN-see) is most commonly known as Canadian wild ginger,
but you may also
hear it called Canada snakeroot, Indian ginger, or coltsfoot.
Asarum
comes from the Greek name asaron, meaning hazelwort, which is the common species of wild ginger in
Europe. Canadense is the Latinized form of Canada, which is
where this plant species was first found. The quote above fits
this plant species perfectly because this beautiful flower hides
underneath the large leaves, making it nearly invisible to human
eyes. This poem I wrote gives a sneak peak into some of the
interesting facts of Canadian wild ginger, and I hope it sparked
an interest in you to learn more about Asarum canadense
from this webpage.
