Heliconia
Everything : Flowers : Download : Next
I used to have this labelled as a "Bird of Paradise picture". A couple of people have told me it's actually a heliconia, and since i've never even heard that word, I have to assume they're correct. I don't remember where this was taken, but I think it was in Lanai.3/11/2001. Resolution: 1225x1814.

That is NOT a bird of paradise! It is in fact a heliconia. (10/1/2002, 10:57 PM)
Are you sure this is a Bird of Paradise? It looks like an upside-down hanging haliconia! (8/28/2002, 7:31 PM)
