Ok, Larry. I'll warn you when I do it.

Awesome! Try to focus in on the very first bract that usually is part leaf part flower, the inside of the bracts for the pedicel and ovary colours.

Larry, they are quite common in this part of the Atlantic Forest. I'll try to get better photos of it, maybe it will help in the ID.

This one of the few heliconias that I haven't been able to identify. Very interesting specimen!
