Flower

I think that this is a type of heliconia, although it also resembles a bird of paradise.  I confess and apologize that my knowledge of specific plant types is limited, so please don't take my word for it.

This week we are showing photos of the folk art of Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia, on our Viva la Voyage travel photo site.

    Whatever it is, it's a very dramatic plant.

    I would have said bird of paradise. Whatever it is, it is terrific.
