Friday's Bouquet

I shot this Bird of Paradise flower at South Bank, Brisbane, Australia. I don’t know what kind of bird it represents but it is big.

I never saw a white one before. We have the usual orange ones at my house and I have also seen shades of purple but never white.

An exotic flower. I haven't seen it in white here. Thanks, Lee.

Hi Aloha,

Thanks for the info. I have thought that it was the Hibiscus.

Hi sw,

The first time I saw it, I thought it was a dead flower. It was when I saw it again that I realized that it was a Bird of Paradise flower.

Hi angel,

The colour shocked me at first. I wondered how can this be a Bird of Paradise?

Hi GLUMO,

Thank you. It was when I noticed the tinges of blue that I realized that it was a blooming flower!
