I spotted this yellow plant the other day - the yellow one is a little rare around here. Both are Birds of Paradise, but the orange/red flower one is the one you see most often.
I found the yellow ones once at a nursery and planted two in my front yard. But then they died. I’ve always been better at killing plants than keeping them. I’m not much of a ‘plant person,’ but this is one of a handful of local plants that I can identify.
Check out this Flickr group, with amazing pictures of the fabulous flowering Bird of Paradise, an ever popular plant for Tucson.
