hello,

I need help with a problem plaguing some of my heliconias. I have a number of them in full sun including some pissitacorums (sp), a rostrata and a nicknersis and the new leaves are coming out very pale (almost transparent and then tend to get burned in the sun.

Has anyone else experienced this problem and know the cause? Too much sun (I am in Antigua in the Caribbean Zone 12 maybe).I water them every morning. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
