Hi againTodays Fan Of… is combined with Cee’s Flower of The Day Challenge. I have gone for the Bird of Paradise. I had never really seen these elegant flowers until my wife and I took our first trip to California, and then as is the norm, started seeing them everywhere. Big Fan Of these flowers!

The first four pics are from our visits to Santa Monica and Malibu in California, the last two from Kibble Palace in the Glasgow Botanic Gardens.

      They are fantastic. I think they are quite widespread; we just don’t see them much in the UK.
