Type: Ornamental
Sun / water: Full sun / water weekly
When I plant it: I split the giant Bird of Paradise two years ago, and it is becoming established.
What I’ve seen
Spectacular orange blooms that resemble a crane, in the spring. The roots are like tubers when dug up to split. When established for a long time, it can become quite clumped. Much like a banana tree, Bird of Paradise does not have a woody stalk and has a high moisture content.
How I use it
Ornamental.
