First, I need to make sure of the place I'm going to put it. It takes mostly shade but lots of light. I just love the colors, the leaves come in red and change to a heavy variegation. The flowers are also red, but it's the foliage!

Anyone know what it is? As I recall the guy said it was a heliconia xxx India, I can't remember what came in the middle. They seem to call both gingers and heliconias, 'heliconia' here so it could be a type of ginger.
