Heliconia's 
Care Instructions

Do not remove the plastic sleeve when storing your flowers in the tropical cooler since it helps keeping stems humid and hydrated.

It is essential to give the Heliconia antennae a fresh cut of about 2 fingers to boost hydration every time they dry out

Mist the heliconia heads fully twice a day with fresh water at room temperature and flower food. This is key for vase life. Make sure water gets inside its bracts.

Heliconias need a lot of water in the bucket , 8 inches ideally.

Your tropical cooler should be at minimum 60°F or 15°C and humidity level of 75%.
