Another Surprise

Look!  I can grow Birds 🙂

And this one is full of spikes – perfect for Becky’s Spiky Squares during March.

My First Bird of Paradise (Strelitzia reginae)

I’ve been watching this spike for the last two week and was thrilled to see the ‘bird’ commenced emerging today though it still has to open completely.  With another four flower spikes on the plant, I’m looking forward to seeing my own little flock of birds in my garden.

    1. Thanx Nancy. He is looking terrific at the moment, but I’m still waiting for the others to open. I have four more spikes and, hopefully, they will all open at once so I have a little flock.

    1. Hi Jo, Dean and I live on the Sunshine Coast – a regional area of south-east Queensland and a location in Australia where it’s beautiful one day – perfect the next 🙂
