Another excellent tall-growing Heliconia. Second only to Hot Rio Nights as a favorite for screening, Kawauchi boasts some of the largest and finest blooms out there. Robust and tolerant of Brisbane conditions, Kawauchi will form a neat, dense clump over time, making it ideal for hiding ugly fences, neighbours, etc.
Very low maintenance. Apply generous manure and/or compost around the plant for best results as this is a plant that will do much better in a rich, organic soil.
Use quality fertilizer such as Troforte or Organic Link to maintain vigorous growth. Prune away spent flowers and leaves if desired.
Superior, large red flowers
Large growing
Lush foliage, neat habit
