Plant in a Box Strelitzia Reginea - Bird of paradise plant

Bring a tropical atmosphere to your living room with this beautiful houseplant. The Strelitzia reginae, better known as the bird of paradise plant, originates from South Africa. With its large, pointed leaves and stunning orange and blue ornamental flowers, the Strelitzia is an enormous eye-catcher. The mature height of the bird of paradise plant indoors is about 150 cm. The Strelitzia is cultivated outdoors and may therefore have some spots or leaf tears; this is part of the plant.

Care
The Strelitzia reginae prefers a spot with plenty of light. Therefore, the plant also requires a lot of water (be mindful of drainage to avoid root rot). In winter, watering should be done sparingly, allowing the compost to dry out between waterings. The plant can also be kept on the terrace in spring and summer. Since the plant is not frost-resistant, it must be brought back indoors by October at the latest.
