The bird of paradise in my garden this year was amazingly prolific and I took a lot of photos of the blooms at different stages. The plants had gotten quite a lot of freeze damage and I cut them back severely but they seem to have thrived in spite of the pruning. There may be more in this series as I never tire of painting the birds in all their exuberance.
