Strelitzia Nicholai - Giant Bird of Paradise 20cm

*Unfortunately we are not able to ship nationwide - local Taupo 3330 delivery or click & collect only.

Often referred to as the giant bird of paradise due to its height of up to 5m. With large upright paddle shaped leaves and large flowers that are white and pale blue sitting on dark purple -black bract. A great plant for the back of a tropical garden. Can also be grown indoors in bright light.

A spectacular foliage plant for that real tropical vibe - but please be aware that they will not flower indoors unless you have a 200 litre pot and a 3-4 metre tall specimen! - So you will need lots of space for this one! Also to note they will get meali bug and other pests (possible red spider mite) if kept in a heated or full, hard sun site indoors. Most  indoor plants will end up stressing in a room with a heatpump or open fire, regular misting and are really on top of your watering regime (not overwatering regime!).
Try and place them into a hallway, big bathroom or open plan living space where they can be breezed by the front door opening or be cooled by a larger space.
They will love a good, humidity misting once or twice a week (indoors)
They will love regular foliar feeding.
