The Strelitzia Augusta, commonly known as the White Bird of Paradise, is defined by its large, green leaves arranged in an elegant fan. The plant produces white flowers with an orange tint, their shape resembling a bird in flight. The overall effect gives an interior a natural, tropical character without overpowering the space.
This plant works well in office lobbies, hotel reception areas, waiting rooms and other larger interior spaces where a distinctive green feature is needed. A spot with plenty of indirect light is preferable; a bright interior away from harsh direct sun is ideal. The plant can also thrive in a sheltered, sunny outdoor setting.
Watering needs are moderate: water when the top layer of soil feels dry and ensure the roots do not sit in water, particularly in winter. This page offers a single size variant; please check the dimensions shown on the page before ordering. Plants are shipped in a sturdy, purpose-built box with a protective cover, secured for transit to arrive in good condition.
