Product description
Strelitzia reginae, better known as the ‘Bird of Paradise Flower’, is a much-loved and iconic houseplant. Who doesn't know its beautiful flowers? Strelitzia reginae owes its nickname to its striking and exotic flowers, which are reminiscent of the colourful feathers of a bird of paradise. It is important to note that not every Strelitzia produces flowers; after all, it is a living creature that grows in its own way. The plant will not be able to flower until it is about seven years old.
Care & tips Strelitzia reginae XXL
The Strelitzia reginae is not a demanding houseplant. With the right care, you can ensure that you enjoy this beautiful plant for a long time and increase its chances of blooming. Ensure sufficient light, regular watering and a well-drained potting soil to create optimal growing conditions.
Water requirements of the Strelitzia Reginae XXL
The Strelitzia Reginae is a large houseplant that needs a lot of water, especially in summer. Water so much that the soil is dry again after a week. Check the soil moisture regularly in the beginning. In winter, the plant uses less water, so water less often to prevent root rot.
Spray the plant weekly to remove dust and prevent pests. With an over-potted plant, using a water meter or moisture meter is recommended to ensure proper humidity.
Light requirements of Strelitzia reginae XXL
The Strelitzia reginae originates from sunny climates and therefore needs a lot of light. Place the plant in a place with sufficient light. If you put the plant in direct sunlight, let it get used to it slowly by gradually increasing the hours of sunlight.
If the Strelitzia reginae is in a spot that is too dark, it will drop its leaves. Then move the plant to a lighter location.
Is Strelitzia reginae XXL a poisonous houseplant?
Strelitzia Reginae is a slightly toxic houseplant. Ingestion can be toxic and cause irritation. So be careful with small children and pets.
