When I lived in Houston TX, a "Bird" was a very rare view, indeed.
When I moved to Southern California, I discovered that Birds of
Paradise were everywhere. They are prolific and require practically
no care.
I have about 15 plants planted along my fence line. The older plants
often produce doubles like the attached image. I still think that they
look majestic in their bright red, orange, blue and green plumage.

Superb image. They grow like weeds here too.


Thank you, Barbara.
Local Birds are in full bloom now and will stay that way for several
more months.
