Photo of HELICONIA seeds and plant	Description:	Growing Instructions & Tips:
	ALL OF THE HELICONIA THAT WE OFFER ARE SHIPPED AS RHIZOMES ( ROOT SECTIONS ). They are sent bare root ( no soil ) and are encased in a plastic bag with a moist tissue so they do not dry out. Plant in a soil mixture that is well draining - not in potting soil or any other type of heavy soil. After planting it is normal for the outter tissues of the pseudostem to discolor and begin to deteriorate because the new growth will usually emerge from the underground rhizome and the stalk that is above ground may simply rot away. Keep the soil moist and be sure to use well draining soil and grow in a warm tropical atmosphere where the temperature is ideally 70 degrees with bright light and high humidity.
