Description: Bird of Paradise is exceptionally ornamental with its delicately divided blue-green foliage and exquisitely showy flowers which are produced intermittently all summer. Many flowering ornamentals add color to gardens as does this plant but this plant brings great beauty in its spectacular flowers. The plants have grown this South American native for decades, during which time it survived 0 degrees F with only a little tip burn. Even more impressive is that it has survived Zone 6 temperatures when kept dry in winter at the Denver Botanic Gardens. It has woody stems adorned toward the top with lacy, grey-green, mimosa-like leaves. Topping each stem, starting in June (NC), are stunningly indescribable flower heads composed of bright yellow petals with contrasting red stamens that resemble long red threads emerging from the flower.
