You're very kind IgCostaNut :) I really enjoy learning and this was a great learning for me!
You are not alone Cindy. I have this plant growing as an ornamental in my year. Most of it dies back during the 6 month dry season but there is a little tha hangs on. It does look very much like a heliconia. I thought it was heliconia when first introduced to it.
Oh gosh, I wasn't even close on the genus! Ha ha. Well this plant is beautiful and a first for Project Noah!
Thank u for the name igcostanut ...
cindybinghamkeiser the picture was taking in a garden.
Beautiful! Was this in a garden or growing wild? My first thought was Helionia but I've never seen one like this. I'm sure someone else can ID it for you.
