Strelitzia 'White Bird of Paradise' Care Guide
Light
Place your Strelitzia nicolai in a spot with partial to full sun but avoid excessive sunlight as this can scorch its leaves. If you start noticing dark spots, it's a sign of too much sun
Water
Let half of the soil dry between waterings, let the soil get moist, not soggy. Too much water can cause root rot. Yellowing leaves mean that they need more hydration
Temperature
Ideal temperatures are between 18 and 27 ºC. Avoid cold draughts. This plant is not tolerant to frost
Feeding
During the growing season, feed it with a general-purpose fertiliser once every two to three weeks. Do not feed it during the colder months
Grooming
Younger plants will need to be repotted once a year, established ones only need repotting once every 3 years. Use a well-draining, slightly acidic light soil mix. Regular pruning is recommended. Remove yellowing, damaged or dead leaves to give room for new ones to grow. You can propagate your White Bird of Paradise through division. Divide your plant’s rhizome during one of your repotting sessions.
Care
Mist the plant regularly to increase the humidity levels and keep its leaves clear of built-up dust
