As far as the Costus goes


I always think this Costus species is such a strange, tropical plant/shrub, because I always expect to see some part of these elongated, vibrant red inforescences (?) open up and do something further. However, this is as far as they go. Very eye-catching. The black and white pattern in the background is from the shadow of a different tropical plant. Taken in the Conservatory at the Calgary Zoo on 14 October 2011.
