My Bird-of-Paradise has been blooming for about a month. They are very widely grown here and will bloom until spring. Photo taken Oct. 25, 2010.

Thanks! This plant is so widely grown here...most people don't pay much attention to them.

Almost every neighbor has at least one large clump of Bird-of-Paradise in their yard. Actually, this clump is only around 6 ft/ 2 meters tall and wide. There's many more larger, and impressive specimens in my neighborhood than this one. :>)

It's so widely used in California because its so very drought tolerant.
