Wild Ginger, also called Ginger, is most likely found in areas that are moist and shady. A
herb and a member of the Aristolochiaeae Family, it grows by Kiosk 10. Pilchuck Learning Center’s sponsored Western Washington State University SAM Project extinction possibility is slight; unlikely to be extinct soon as it is found in other areas of North America. Found under the boardwalk (if you are looking), the Ginger is unique in its pollination. It uses the services of ants!
