1, Sterlitzia reginae

2 may be not???  heliconia psittocorum, diagnostic red bract is absent

seems to be bud... 

  it seems to be heliconia angusta , yellow christmas var,

or heliconia psittacorum, yellow parrot flower

3 bract is large like Sterliztia reginae

so it has its seeds

4th one.... i dont know.... i dont exactly recall properties of seeds in the heliconia

Thanks very much Usha di.

1st one - taking it as Sterlitzia reginae

2nd, 3rd and 4th are all of same plants, planted along compound wall.

I take it as Heliconia sp. since the photos do not give any relevant clues to decide the species.

Regards.

the fruits are different and the bract that lasts and cradles the fruits are different sizes

bracts seem different in size as i find them growing all over the world

but will need to find papers that show dissection of the flowers

that would have dimensions

it takes time

which is in short supply right now

a funeral today is coming in a few hours

i sat at the computer trying to wake up

open the eyes really, since construction workers and their lorries with bricks and black stoone chips unloading

started making ruckus across the street at 3 am!!!!

not very intellectually conduce way to study, though !!
