Anyone want any heliconias?

Posted by bihai z8B FL (My Page) on

I am discontinuing some varieties of heliconia from my greenhouse due to space limitations. I want to construct an area across the back wall for Anthuriums, palms, and bromeliads. The space is currently occupied by some heliconias, some of which I have duplicates of. I hate to waste plants so I want to trade them.

The varieties are:
Heliconia psitticorum x spathocircinata "Tropica"
Heliconia latispatha "Red-Orange Gyro"
Heliconia latispatha "Roadrunner"
Heliconia bihai "Banana Split"
Heliconia pendula "Red Waxy"

These would come in the form of rhizomes, which you plant like gingers and they send up new growth.

These are zone 9B-11 plants, but all can be grown and bloomed in containers.

I'd like to trade for philodendrons, gingers, anthuriums, colocasia/xanthosoma/alocasia, bromeliads (especially Dyckias and Hechtias) make a suggestion, I may want it, I may NEED it.

I have been selling these on eBay for rock bottom prices just to get rid of them, as spring comes in early March and I want to begin my new project.
