IMG_3536I am still trying to remember the name of this flower.  I have a paler variety at home but these beauties are in bloom on the Lake Chapala Society grounds. I love the seed pods as well, so I’m showing one above.  They burst open and spill out the black bee bee seeds, insuring a new generation of plants.

      Ah…You will relieve a big question in my mind. I’ve been trying to recall the name for over a year, have looked through numerous sites for flowers of Mexico. I only found it on one, and it was not identified!!! I’ll owe you if you find the answer. Thanks, Nomad.

      Bless you, Hobbsart! I looked and looked under heliconia (although I was spelling it haliconia) and couldn’t find any picture of it, although I did find a picture labeled ginger and heliconia–so of course I couldn’t tell which it was because although I thought it was one of the two, its image wasn’t shown in any website devoted to either. It is just so different from any other heliconia, that I needed verification. How did you ever find the site that identified it? So glad there are people with strong curiosity and that “help” gene! Hope I can return the favor some time.
