Bright red, pointed flowers like bird of paradise. Long, shiny, green leaves.
This is a heliconia (Heliconia sp.). It looks like a Heliconia bihai but I am not sure because of the white-tipped flower parts with a specific shape like H. psittacorum. I'll suggest H. bihai. Wait and see if anyone agrees or offers another species.
