Bird of Paradise Flower Meaning
Here in Hawaii, Bird of Paradise (a.k.a the Crane Flower), is a common garden plant and a long-lasting cut flower to go with any home/office tropical arrangement.
Hawaii Native Status: Cultivated. Originally from South Africa.
Fun Fact: The flower is made of three bright orange petals and three blue petals, which are fused together into a "bud". As the Bird of Paradise blooms, each petal makes its entrance and the shape, when fully bloomed, looks like a tropical bird in flight.
Meaning of the Bird Paradise Flower
The flower symbolism associated with the bird of paradise flower is freedom, good perspective, faithfulness (when given from a woman to a man). The bird of paradise flower is so-named because of a resemblance to the actual bird of paradise.
Kathy Bochis King I planted seeds 27 years ago. They grew beautifully indoors (I live in NY) but never bloomed. I was told this year to stress it out (move it out of the sun and don’t water it for a while). Then start watering it and use fertilizer every single watering. Finally, it bloomed and it was beautiful!
Brian Ash Flower grew from seed.
Ilias Missyris Awesome Birds of Paradise, or crane flowers (Strelitzia reginae) — in Xylókastro, Greece.
Bird-of-Paradise flower with some dramatic spiderwebs. — in Syntagma Square.
SUCCULENCE Pretty sure this incredible beast in front of our house, with the blackbird of paradise flower (that should open white), is a Strelitzia Nicolai. Both the tree and the flower are so big!
The exotic bird of paradise flower... simply magical.
