Zingiberaceae - 4D Cinema System - China 3D Theater System

Characteristics Members of the family are small to large herbaceous plants with distichous leaves with basal sheaths that overlap to form a pseudostem

. The plants are either self-supporting or epiphytic. Flowers are hermaphroditic, usually strongly zygomorphic, in determinate cymose inflorescences, and subtended by conspicuous, spirally arranged bracts. The perianth is composed of two whorls, a fused tubular calyx, and a tubular corolla with one lobe larger than the other two. Flowers typically have two of their stamenoids (sterile stamens) fused to form a petaloid lip, and have only one fertile stamen. The ovary is inferior and topped by two nectaries, the stigma is funnel-shaped. Some genera yield essential oils used in the perfume industry (Alpinia, Hedychium). Distribution The Zingiberaceae have a pantropical distributionound in the tropics of Africa, Asia and the Americas, with its greatest diversity in Southeast Asia.
