Description
False Birds Of Paradise On Black. False Bird Of Paradise, also know as Wild Plantains and Hanging Lobster Claws. This tropical plant is both gorgeous and highly prized.
Combining both the colorful and the bizarre, members of this group of plants feature big clusters of showy bracts containing small true flowers which attract birds. The plant in this photo is a Heliconia Rostrata, which can grow up to 46 feet tall with leaves 2-4 feet long. The Hanging inflorescences contain red bracts shading to yellow at the tip and growing up to 12 feet long.
