Hi, I live in Spain and my strelitzia reginae did really well last year. I protected it over the colder months but come the spring the heads went black and died. I automatically "dead-headed" it and now I am the proud owner of some green stalks. Did I do wrong, what should I have done - will the heads come back. I could kick my self for not checking first...

I don't even know what a strelitzia reginae is. shocked
But, if you post that question down in one of the other forums (which ever one is appropriate) I'm sure you will get some answers.

Nice to meet you!
