Bird of Paradise
My 22 year old bird of paradise grown from seed is just starting to throw up
a flower shoot - hurrah. It used to flower 14 years ago & then stopped after we moved house. 3 years ago I re-potted it & put it in a new conservatory where it was clearly a lot happier by throwing out a lot of new leaves. Should I be doing anything to encourage it to produce more flowering shoots. Glen |

Do whatever you can to make it think it's in southern California - they grow like weeds there! cheers, Marj -- * * * Marj Tiefert: http://www.mindspring.com/~mtiefert/ Marj's Garden Shop: http://stores.tiefert.com/garden/ |
