Heliconia charteacea (Tempress)

H.chartacea (Tempress)

This is one of my favourite heliconia plants. It flowers very well and not stop flowering.It is 6ft. tall plant and grows from corms. It is very tough and majestic. One feels proud if plant this plant because it has one metre long inflorescence with 20 bracts red and yellow.It is easy to grow and needs no shade.


The 'sister' to this variety is H.chartecea (Sexy Pink) and Sexy scarlet. I have all those varieties. If you want to know more please  feel free and don't hesitate email me at zainudinhaji@gmail.com.
