Strelizia Reginae: Bird of Paradise Strelizia Reginae is a species of flowering plant indigenous to South Africa. An evergreen perennial, it is widely cultivated for its dramatic flowers. In temperate areas it is a popular houseplant. Common names such as “crane flower” and “bird of paradise” reference the open flower’s resemblance to the head and beak of a colourful exotic bird. A new subspecies was discovered growing alongside the Mzimvubu River in South Africa’s Eastern Cape in 2002. The plant grows to 7 ft tall, with large, strong leaves arranged in two ranks that form a fan shaped crown. The flowers, which emerge one at a time from the spathe, consist of three brilliant orange sepals and three purplish-blue or white petals.
