    Did you go to Costa Rica?

    Just THE most wonderful country for plants, birds, animals and scenery.
    Fab food, lovely people. Clean.I loved it.
    I recommend Brightwater holidays that I travelled with. *****

    Gardens of Costa Rica - Brightwater

    Looks like Heliconia psittacorum.
    My pic below is one called Heliconia psittacorum Sassy.

      Sadly not, it was one of my colleagues - but she had a fabulous time and some of the photos she came back with were absolutely incredible! Definitely on my list if I can afford to go on a holiday, for sure.

      Thank you for such a quick ID too, you never let us down :smile: I will pass it along.
