Default Heliconia Stricta Oliveira's Sharonii
I had tried 5 times before to grow this heliconia. For me, it's been one of the more difficult ones. I was able to get one to bloom several years ago but it promptly croaked after it bloomed. This plant has a total of 12 stalks in various stages of bloom. It's a short one with the underside of the leaves a nice maroon.
