Bird Of Paradise

Bird Of Paradise (Strelitzia reginae (Bird of paradise))

This is my other baby, Bird of Paradise and I've been waiting for this one to bloom for 8 years ! I was told that BOP like their roots crowded and I've repotted this one twice, so that may have slowed it down some. I'm also told that they have to have 17 leaves before they'll bloom. Well 17 leaves have come and gone..........so fingers crossed on this one too please !!

You really do need a large space for these, don't you ! Blooms are well worth it though.
