Bird of Paradise Flower Death: Natural Aging, Not Overwatering

Situation

Bird of paradise flower died suddenly after rainy season in Florida. Owner suspects overwatering.

Explanation

Bird of paradise is very water-tolerant. The flower likely completed its natural cycle—blooms last 2–3 weeks, then brown and shrivel.
