Description
This bird of paradise variety has long leathery leaves reminiscent of those on the banana tree, to which it is related. The leaves are stiff clumps that sprout from a ground-level base, while the flower rests atop a rigid stalk and is composed of orange sepals and blue petals. Bearing an uncanny resemblance to the head and crown of an exotic bird, the blooms appear sporadically through the growing season—as many as 25 times per year.
