Heliconia Rostrata / Banana Ginger / Hanging Lobster / False Bird of Paradise / 1 Rhizome 

Heliconias are known to those who grow them as a host flower to many birds, especially the hummingbird. Because of its unique characteristics, it is often used as a specimen for gardens. Heliconia is in a group of plants that may grow up to 6 feet tall in nature. The thick bracts make excellent cut flowers with a long vase life and mild aroma.

        I am selling rhizome of the plant (not whole plant - picture has been shown as representative only), which is capable to grow the plant.

How to plant

 

Keep the rhizome in sunlight for five minutes before planting. Burry the rhizome directly in guarden or flower pot 2 inches under the soil. Do very little watering regularly. The rhizome will germinate within 30 to 45 days.

 

Warning: Too much watering will result decay the rhizome. 

         Warning: Each and every seeds/rhizomes/ stems have a hibernation/ dormancy  period which may take  several weeks, months, and some even up to year depending upon, region, weather, season, planting method etc. It is important that the buyer should understand these are perishable things and  germination can be adversely affected by such factors as mold/fungus, bugs, temperature, moisture content, light intensity, care, and contamination of planting media among many other reasons. These factors are totally buyer's responsibility and risk.  Floating seeds do not always indicate that the seed is not viable. Many times it is a misconception because the seed does not have the density to sink in water.  Germination process needs patience and if everything suitable you will success.
