- This Heliconia is best kept indoors in bright but not direct sunlight and watered regularly. This plant does not like to be over watered.
- It's best to cut off any dead stems to encourage more blooms; cut them off at soil level.
- This plant prefers the top thirds of the soil to be dry between watering. Reduce the amount of times it's watered in the winter months to prevent the roots rotting.
- It's recommended that this plant is fertilised every four to six weeks using a special houseplant feed.
- Please note: the decorative pot shown in the images is for illustration purposes only and is not included with the plant.

Watering Water when the top few centimetres of compost begin to dry, then water thoroughly and allow excess water to drain away. Do not leave the plant sitting in standing water, as consistently wet roots can lead to rot. Growth slows in winter, so reduce watering frequency during cooler, darker months.
Best Growing Conditions Grow in bright, indirect light, ideally at around 18-26°C, away from cold draughts and sudden temperature changes. Use a good-quality, well-drained houseplant compost and make sure excess water can drain freely from the pot. Most houseplants perform best with moderate humidity and should be kept away from strong radiator heat.
