This is a clumping plant which means it doesn’t spread by seed or by running but stays in place and grows bigger in that spot. Very beautiful, very tropical looking, flowers grow up verses growing down like heliconias. This variety can grow to about a 7 feet tall clump. This variety is orange with slight touches of red and pinks. When purchased it will come as one clump with several little roots to plant direct in the ground or in a large put. The leaves will be cut back. So this won’t have leaves or flowers on it, this is purely for planting and establishing your own shrub or hedge in your garden.

A fern is a member of a group of vascular plants that reproduce via spores and have neither seeds nor flowers. They differ from mosses by being vascular, i.e., having specialized tissues that conduct water and nutrients and in having life cycles in which the sporophyte is the dominant phase. Ferns are an excellent addition to any shady garden. You can use them as specimen plants or for background plantings. They also make good companions for other shade plants such as hostas, astilbes, dicentras and caladiums. Ferns are an indication of a healthy environment.
