Parrot's Beak Heliconia

Parrot's Beak Heliconia
Photographed outside our guesthouse, Heliconia psittacorum is native to the Amazon rainforests but considered an invasive plant here in the rainforests of Australia, though often found in gardens.

Oh wow, isn't that lovely!! I had to look up Wiki: Heliconia and holy cow, so many beautiful species! They aren't the same as Birds of Paradise though, which is another family: Wiki: Strelitzia

I'm surprised though because they are similar in their oddness, aren't they? Also, I would say your plant should be called a "Toucan Bill"...what were they thinking?! :D :D Thanks so much for the link, I always love to see more of your photography! :)
