    Definitely are stunning... Mine doesn't get much sunlight it's in a north-east room but the room is quite warm... What you mean by "rottie mauled it" never heard this one before?

    I'd never come across the bird of paradise before this post and decided it would be an interesting challenge so I planted 6 seeds about 7 weeks ago and my first one popped up yesterday. Looking forward to watching it grow now.
