Heliconia Peluda (Hairy Heliconia). Heliconia are known for their bright colored bracts. Bracts are the leaf structures at the base of the flowers.

Their name derives from Mount Helicon, which, according to Greek mythology was the home of the Muses, the nine goddesses of the arts and sciences, AxMG_2021
