Hydrangea
Common names: hydrangea, hortensia
Hydrangea (scientific name: Hydrangea) is a genus of about 100 species of flowering
plants native from Japan to China, Himalaya, Indonesia, as well as throughout
America.
They can be either deciduous or evergreen, though more widely cultivated temperate
species are all deciduous.
Four-petaled flowers grow in round clusters that are usually 4 to 8 inches wide.
Flowers bloom in white, lavender or pink.
While hydrangeas have been a garden or landscape favorite for years, they have
become a popular cut flower to enhance garden-style flower arrangements. |
Bird-of-Paradise
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. |
