Detailed Description Havana Cigar is one of the real stunners of the tropical world. This plant just screams tropical! The large oblong waxy backed leaves are held slightly erect, making them highly visible to the viewer. The unusual chocolate flower bracts are arranged like a candelabra and often sold as a cut flower. Absolutely stunning in large pots. Also useful in creating a good microclimate for more tender tropicals in windy conditions.
