Common names: Strelitzia, Crane Flower or Bird of Paradise.
Strelitzia reginae is a flowering plant indigenous to South Africa.
Common names include Strelitzia, Crane Flower or Bird of Paradise, though these
names are also collectively applied to other species of genus Strelitzia.
Named for their similarity in shape to the heads of tropical birds, these have
multicolored 6-inch flowers held inside green, pointed bracts.
Florida and California are the main areas of cultivation, due to their warm climate.
It is a common ornamental plant in Southern California, and has been chosen as
the Official Flower of Los Angeles.
Their blooms are bright orange with purple, living up to two weeks. |
Snapdragon
Common names: snapdragon.
Antirrhinum is a genus of plants that used to be the family Scrophulariaceae,
more commonly known as snapdragons from its flowers' fancied resemblance to the
face of a dragon that opens and closes its mouth when properly squeezed.
These tall-spike stems usually have fully opened florets upon arrival with flower
buds on the upper portion showing a hint of color.
Flower colors include pink, purple, lavender, white, yellow, orange or burgundy.
Snapdragons are available year-round, as a cut flower they will last five to 10
days.
Special care: Snapdragons drink lots of water, so check water level frequently.
