Here's some tips that might (surprisingly) increase your chances of growing a Bird-of-Paradise:
1) Plant it from a flower, not graft it: You'll have much of a higher chance to get the flower you want, if you know, it's the only thing growing on the plant. Try the Romance Festival from CL during its growing seasons to pick some or plop some down from the Gallery since it's not considered "cheating" if you will.
2) Know the flower's growing season: Birds-of-Paradise are Spring/Summer flowers, and the plants take 36 sims hrs to grow. Take the time to wait patiently during these seasons, for they will not bloom in Fall/Winter.
3) Stay on the lot you planted the flower in for the entire growing seasons: I presume you'll be planting in your home, so you'll probably make your sims homebodies for the entirety of Spring/Summer.
4) Extend the growing season lengths if you have to: If you find you're losing time in your growing season, why not extend the season length so that it has a longer time to grow at least one.
5) Plant way more than one plant as soon as you get more: Obviously it will expand the chances of you getting more flowers if you have more of the same plants, and following the above suggestions, you'll probably get a Bird-of-Paradise eventually. ;)
