The ginger-families [1] [2] [3] or ginger group [4] or Core Zingiberales [5] is a terminal clade in the order Zingiberales (Monocotyledoneae) that comprises Zingiberaceae (the ginger family), Costaceae, Marantaceae and Cannaceae.
While some herbaceous Zingiberaceae such as Alpinia boia can attain a height of ten metres, only one species is a true canopy plant (Ravenala madagascariensis – Strelitziaceae). The latter, a Madagascar endemic , has thick, palm-like trunks which push the fan-shaped crown of leaves up into the top layers of the forest.
