I have a giant white b.o.p (strelitzia nicolai) and I have a dwarf of the same type, it is equally as beautiful as it's extremely large counterpart. The dwarf is about a foot high and has beautiful blue and white flowers. I do not have a camera to upload photo but it is wonderful and beautiful addition to anyones collection. I purchased mine at tops for about ten bucks.
