Bird of Paradise Strelitzia reginae 10 Seeds

Strelitzia reginae, commonly known as the bird of paradise, is a striking evergreen perennial native to South Africa, celebrated for its exotic, birdlike blooms and bold architectural foliage. Forming clumps 1–2 meters tall, it features broad, leathery, banana-like leaves on sturdy petioles that create a lush, tropical look year-round. Its spectacular flowers emerge from a horizontal, beak-shaped bract—deep green with a red edge—unfurling vivid orange and blue petals that resemble a bird in flight, and are pollinated in nature by sunbirds perching on the bract. Favoring full sun, well-drained soils, and mild climates, this long-lived ornamental thrives in coastal and subtropical landscapes or as a dramatic container plant, delivering vibrant color and sculptural beauty to gardens and indoor spaces alike.
