In our country you can find exotic plants that will capture your attention immediately due to their colors and extravagant shapes. Usually, you can observe them when you are driving, you can observe them near the street, in gardens of houses, flower shops or clandestine street sales, and they are there just for you to take them.
Among these exotic and exuberant plants you will find the so-called "Ave del paraíso" (Paradise bird), the "Ginger" and the "Heliconia". These three long stemmed flowers are widely used to decorate a vase or to make flower arrangements for special events, where the color plays an important part. They are often used in our country's cultural activities during the year.
The most interesting aspect of this exuberant plants is that they last longer than the majority of the plants you can find in the market. They can last even a week if you keep them with fresh and sufficient water. These types of plants develop easily in tropical regions such as our country, and of course, they are part of our decorative culture.
Our advice is that…"do no" stop admiring the beauty of these plants or taking them to the room or the place you are staying at.
Some of the brands in Costa Rica that use these exotic flowers as part of their concept are "Hotel Eco Boutique", located in San Pedro, very close from the city (www.avedelparaiso.com), and also "Diseño Floral y Eventos Ave del Paraíso" (Floral Designs and Events Ave del Paraíso) https://www.facebook.com/Floristaeiaf/?fref=tsv.
