Strelizia reginae - Bird of Paradise

Wow,Brilliant colours..

This photo is also very pretty. :o)

Thanks for the comments. This picture is a little more centered.

How wonderful to be able to grow these in the garden.

Gillian,

These plants are extremely common in California...they are almost grown as commonly as weeds. Seriously, they are grown in practically every garden because they are pretty and very drought tolerant. Bird of Paradise is the official plant of the City of Los Angeles.

Almost makes me want to move!

Just love it, love it, love it

Thanks everyone! I'll keeps posting them.

Yes, they are...many, many plants blooming around the the South Land (S. Cal) right now.
