Seed-grown Bird of Paradise plants available, 3 of them. This South African native fits in with some of the other showy Cape flora quite well, with large tropical-looking leaves up to 5 feet tall bearing slender petioles and broad 1-2 foot blades in a large clump. Flower stalks rise above them and sport a very odd-looking structure supposedly resembling an ornate bird in flight hovering over the plant, adorned in colors of lime green, orange, and blue. Tolerant of a wide range of soils and moderate light to full sun, though only barely tolerates frost and is best grown tropically.
Available plants are approx. 4-6 inches tall, with massive root systems awaiting big pots to spread out in.
