Heliconia


See the vibrant colour of a heliconia plant. Isn't it beautiful?
Do you think it looks like a string of lobster claws?

Welcome to our group. We grow that heliconia. It must be happy in our yard because I have seen it grow up to about 12 feet.

Thanks for the welcome note! Very happy to join DPB! The heliconia plant is from my garden. Amazing plant and I always enjoy seeing the beautiful fire crackers like blooms!

How did you know the name? It's lovely.

"Use your first smile, your first form of generosity, of love, of kindness—use it at home; start at home. And if there is something left over—if … your plate is just full of abundance of patience and goodness and smiles and joy, then by all means, you should go … and offer that to others. But we must begin at home." by Dr Robin Smith
