Strelitzia Reginae

Finally, after almost two years, new baby Strelitzia Reginae popped out. After having new leaves one after another, finally a flower came out as well. Here it is. It is sweet little flower, strong orange and violet colour, no smell and with some tears. I hope it stays for at least a month and to encourage further flowering.
