90 Degrees

Bird of Paradise. A flower of right angles (or near enough to). I remember using these in one of my floristry assignments when I was studying the topic. Believe it or not, the angles actually made it somewhat difficult to arrange. I struggled with them as they never quite sit where you want them to. I like these flowers though, I love them in the garden, although dont ever hope to move them once they are established. Ive had to do that before and it isnt fun. Its safe to say the plant isnt exactly salvageable afterwards. They are delightfully easy to grow and flower profusely with very little effort. The only thing you really have to watch is the dead leaves and stuff that builds up in the clump when they get large. Rewarding plant though.
