add a pot to fit this plant
Transform your space with the Strelitzia nicolai, also known as the Giant White Bird of Paradise – an architectural houseplant loved for its immense, paddle-shaped leaves and bold tropical form. A true statement piece, this plant brings instant height, movement and elegance to any interior.
Given the right conditions and maturity, Strelitzia nicolai can produce spectacular blue and white flowerheads, making it one of the most dramatic houseplants available. It thrives in bright light and will tolerate some direct sunlight, making it ideal for a bright living space or conservatory.
Care Tips:
• Keep above 15°C
• Water when the top of the soil feels dry to the touch (allow the top inch to dry in winter)
• Feed monthly during spring and summer
• Mist often to maintain humidity and keep the leaves lush
