INDOOR OR OUTDOOR PLANT - Double Planted Bird of Paradise in 40cm pot
The Bird of Paradise plant, or strelitzia, is a large and gorgeous foliage plant that looks just as majestic indoors in a pot, as it does outside in the garden. The Bird of Paradise is native to Africa, they can grow up to 3 metres tall and spread up to two to three metres wide when aged, and has similar foliage to that of banana leaves.
In Victoria it can be grown in a pot indoors or in a sheltered position outside. In order to keep its foliage in an attractive state we recommend ensuring it is out of the wind to avoid leaves tearing.
LIGHT
A bird of paradise needs bright light, including some direct sunlight, to bloom well.
WATER
Allow the top of the soil to dry out before re-watering. A full wetting of all the soil every 2-3 weeks during the growing season (less in winter) is best to ensure all the roots can access moisture.
