Oooh the big fella!! I’ve got two of these in my garden but haven’t flowered as yet – hopefully next season. Great work – they’re beautiful flowers.
Anna D'Accione replied
Thanks Bev, I don’t have one either but my daughter has, I was surprised when I saw it

My sister-in-law in Forster has a huge one but then its also years old.

Anna D'Accione replied
Thank you Janis for you kind comment, it is really apreciated, My daughter has this in her new home and I had never seen one either

And it’s huge…I have done a painting of one, but it’s orange…it’s more about the leaves, but I put the flower in for contrast…I have never seen one that looked like this, not even on the net till now…it must be very rare..you should notify Kew Gardens in England…
Anna D'Accione replied
I don’t think it’s rare around Newcastle area, some folk here have them in their gardens and they seem to come out of a plant that looks like a small banana tree, maybe they only grow in the subtropics. Thanks for the suggestion

Anna D'Accione replied
Thank you so much, the leaves do look like a giant bird of paradise plant but I had never seen in in flower before either
