Bird of Paradise.
My friend Josie bought me a Bird of Paradise plant when she was visiting in August 2006. We were still renting so the plant stayed in its pot waiting for us to move into our new house.
It has been planted into the ground for about a year now and is doing really well. It has slowly slowly opened up its first flower of this year and I promised Josie a photo of it to prove I haven't killed it!
Here you are Josie.... Doesn't it look great!
