These little beauties just keep on blooming, but unfortunately the leaves don’t fare so well! love the seed pods, though.

Reaching for the sky is only half the story. If they ever reach the sky we will the rest of it.

It’s actually Lake Chapala that you see from my house. I go to the ocean in Jan-March. Thanks for the kind words.

I like the green seedpods too, though. They look like birds with upturned beaks.

I picked a seed pod in Charleston last Nov. Had no idea what it was. Grew 9 plants in April 2016. Asked many experts here in GA and no one knew what i had grown. My friend, a florist, gave me a hint that it might be a Heliconia.Googled heliconia plants and Reaching the Sky Heliconia matched my new blooms. Thanks for your blog. Kathie in Madison, GA

Reaching for the Google bar to look for Reaching the Sky Heliconia! Many varieties. I love them all. Many mistake them for Birds of Paradise but although they are similar, they are birds of a different feather.

Just saw this.. It is actually an Indian Shot plant, not heliconia. Sheesh.
