A slower growing banana relative that is much loved by flower
arrangers. Grown mostly for its beautiful flowers, which resemble
the head of an exotic bird. Strelitzia also produces attractive,
thick evergreen leaves that are slightly bluish-green. It will
require about 3 or 4 years before it reaches flowering size, but it
is well worth the wait! Very easy too. |
