Tropical Strelitzia Augusta plants

The Strelitzia Augusta, also known as the bird of paradise plant, is an enchanting addition to any interior. Originally from South Africa, like its relatives in the Strelitzia family, this plant is known for its impressive, tropical appearance. The plant is distinguished by its robust leaves that naturally have cracks, bumps and sometimes brown edges. These characteristics are part of its growth process and contribute to its uniqueness as a sturdy houseplant.

Can the Strelitzia Augusta flower?

In its natural habitat, Strelitzia Augusta can get white flowers, which is why it also has the nicknames ‘white bird of paradise flower’ or ‘Strelitzia alba’. As a houseplant, the Strelitzia Augusta cannot flower; the Strelitzia Reginae is a suitable alternative if you do want a flowering plant. This variety usually starts flowering around the age of 8, with the characteristic, exotic flowers this Strelitzia is known for. After flowering, however, it can take up to 12 months for the plant to produce flowers again. Nor is it a guarantee that every plant can grow flowers.

Is Strelitzia Augusta poisonous?

Strelitzia Augusta is poisonous. The sap from the stems and leaves can cause skin irritation, and ingesting the leaves can cause health problems. It is therefore important to be extra careful in households with small children and curious pets. For a safe choice, check out our collection of animal-friendly houseplants.

Caring for the Strelitzia Augusta

aHave you just bought a beautiful Strelitzia Augusta and are curious about its care? No worries, fortunately the Strelitzia Augusta is not a demanding houseplant. Although it doesn't need much care, there are some important points to consider. Originally from warm areas, the bird of paradise plant grows best at a minimum temperature of 15 degrees Celsius. This robust houseplant likes plenty of sunlight and thrives well in moist soil.

Watering the Strelitzia Augusta

The Strelitzia Augusta likes to stand in slightly moist potting soil. Especially in summer, because in this period the houseplant catches a lot of sun and processes water faster. However, it is important not to give too much water. This can stick to the roots and cause root rot. Spray the large leaves regularly with a water spray. This will remove any dust particles, keep the humidity high and prevent pests.

The ideal location for a Strelitzia Augusta

The Strelitzia Augusta feels best in a place with plenty of light, preferably in front of a south-facing window. Without enough daylight, this houseplant cannot grow properly and its leaves may not look as beautiful. So give your Strelitzia the right spot to shine and grow.

Repotting the bird of paradise plant

It is essential to know when to repot the Strelitzia Augusta. If the plant starts growing out of its current pot and is wobbly, it is time to take action. Repot this beautiful houseplant with the right supplies, such as a waterproof inner sleeve and a moisture meter. Make sure the new pot is about 20% bigger than the old pot, so that the Strelitzia Augusta has enough room to continue growing comfortably.

Pruning the Strelitzia Augusta

You can prune the Strelitzia Augusta when the leaves start to lose their beauty. The lower leaves are usually the oldest and show signs of ageing. Use sharp secateurs or a knife to cut off these leaves as close to the stem as possible. Be careful, however, as the sap released when pruning the Strelitzia Augusta is poisonous.

Feeding the Strelitzia Augusta

Feeding your Strelitzia Augusta is most effective during the spring and summer months. For this, use normal houseplant food. In winter, when the Strelitzia Augusta is in a dormant period, it is important not to administer any nutrition. Excessive feeding can actually harm the plant then. By matching your Strelitzia Augusta's nutritional needs to the season, you will help it stay healthy and grow optimally throughout the year.

Fight diseases and pests on the Strelitzia Augusta

While every plant is unfortunately susceptible to pests, you can reduce the chances of problems in the Strelitzia Augusta by regularly spraying the leaves with a water spray. This helps keep pests at bay and promotes the plant's health.

However, if you notice that your Strelitzia Augusta does suffer from a persistent pest, we are always at your service with expert tips and advice. Don't hesitate to contact us for pest control support to keep your plant growing healthy and happy.
