Not sure what kind of plant this is. Google says it’s a bird of paradise?

It’s an Orange Bird of Paradise. Cool plants. Need lots of light and warm temperatures. They are a lot smaller than the giant bird of paradise variety.

I had no idea a smaller version existed and now I have to spend the day tomorrow scouring all the nurseries in town for one to bring home!

Lowes and Home Depot used to sell them in spring each year keeping them over next to the cash registers in the Outside Garden section. Several were in bloom each time.
