Rio Psittacorum
Psittacorum, also known as Parakeet Heliconia, is a member of the banana family. Its huge, deeply veined green leaves grow along narrow vertical stalks. Tall, upright stems carry spectacular orange and red bracts with yellow-to-orange flowers, often tipped with dark green. The flowers look like a parrot’s beak, giving the plant its common name.

Care and Handling
Store product at 50-60° F and 95% of relative humidity to have a longer and healthier vase life. Store your flowers preferably in the same place, since temperature changes may damage them. Trim off 1 inch of the stem’s bottom. Place water in a clean vase and hydrate stems with fresh water.
Mist one or twice a day with fresh water.
