I am a range of plants with dramatic, multi-hued tropical foliage in the form of large banana like leaves.
My large and showy flowers come in a range of bright hues often in reds and yellows. I bloom from summer to late autumn.
My leaves are often brightly coloured providing a vibrant display even when I am not in bloom. I have many hybrids and cultivars.
I am a great way to add a tropical feel to any garden space.
I can also be grown in pots and an excellent way to brighten patios and courtyards.
My starchy roots are edible.
