Hello there! Today I have a picture of a Parrot's Beak Plant!
This is the Heliconia Psittacorum also known as the Parrot's Beak. The one in the picture is still small but these plants can grow big. This plant is easy to find in Java because it grows in tropical climates. it can be found in sidewalks and around neighborhoods around Jakarta. In Bali, they uses this plant as decorations. This plant is also found in many gardens because it is beautiful when fully grown. This plant's roots and seeds can be used for healing purposes.
Thanks for visiting my blog! Please comment down below about anything! :)
