O.K. I must purchase a flower book so that I can identify flowers. Sorry, I don't know the name of these.

D-68 Tropical Flowers
Remember the flowers I bought for myself - actually a gift from my in-laws (here) well, today I took pictures of one of the tropical ones. I think I have a few more good days left with these.

Gorgeous!
Aren't those amazing? Those are Bird of Paradise. They are so exotic to me!
I first saw this flower when I was in Barbados... I love it!
It is a Heliconia, which originated in tropical America is often called 'wild banana' in the Caribbean. It is related to the edible banana, its leaves paddle-shapped, a characteristic of the banana family. The brightly coloured floral parts are really large bracts and arise alternatively from the stem. In some types the stem is erect while in others they hang downwards. The bracts are long lasting and often used in floral decorations. This shrub grows wild in a number of Caribbean islands, it usually blooms from June to August and can grow in full sun or shade, reaching a neight between 8 - 15 feet.
Beautiful Sandra, especially like the second one against the dark background!
