Description

Strelitzia reginae

Exotic blue and orange flowers in the shape of a bird give this plant its name, Bird of Paradise.

• Tropical looking broad round leaves • Looks great in pots, along fence lines and in poolside gardens • Tolerates drought, light frost and poor soils 

 
Vaccinium corymbosum 'Denise' Blueberry  Blueberry Denise is a large fruiting variety, producing an abundance of plump juicy fruit once the plant is mature. Denise needs a chilling period to successfully set fruit so best suited to cooler climates. Denise is partially self fertile, but a larger crop will result if another variety is growing nearby. Like all Blueberries, Denise does need an acid soil to grow well. If growing in a pot ensure a potting mix for Azaleas and Camellias is selcted as this will ensure the correct soil pH. 6'' pot

Bird of Paradise are native to South Africa, and are very hardy and can be grown in full sun to part shade. They get their name from their exotic blue/orange flowers that resemble the head of a colourful tropical bird.

Bird of Paradise have large, lush foliage and look great when used in rockeries and interplanted with yuccas and agaves. Great for creating a tropical feel in the garden.

We refer to these as "Flowering Bird of Paradise" or Strelitzia Bird of Paradise (a bit of a mouthful that comes from their botanical name) because there is another variety of Bird of Paradise called Giant Bird of Paradise. These have much bigger leaves, are taller growing, and are often planted together with Flowering Bird of Paradise to create a multi-layered, tropic garden effect even as far south as Melbourne.
