Heliconia schiedeana - Claw Flower Emerging Flower Spike


Heliconia schiedeana - Claw Flower Emerging Flower Spike (Heliconia schiedeana - Claw Flower)

My Claw Flower plants are finally going to bloom after 3 years. They haven't bloomed in such a long time due to our very long drought, which finally ended this year. There's several stems getting ready to bloom. Yay! :>)
