Hey guys –
Probably one of the most beautiful decorative flowers, Strelitzia reginae (aka the bird of paradise flower) has South African origins and can be found in the tropical areas. It was named after Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz, the Queen of Great Britain and Ireland after her wedding with King George III. The flower celebrates the royal grace.
I took the picture in the Botanical Garden from Madeira, a magical place for nature lovers.
Have an easy Tuesday and keep steeming!
