The Strelitzia Reginae, commonly known as the bird of paradise, is recognised by its large, firm green leaves and striking orange flowers shaped to resemble a bird in flight. The contrast between the deep foliage and the intense flower colour gives the plant a vibrant, exotic presence that holds up well on close inspection.
It suits hotel lobbies, office receptions, retail spaces and care facilities where a natural accent is required. Indoors it performs best in a position with plenty of indirect light; outdoors it thrives in full sun on a terrace or in a garden. With heights ranging from 100 to 180 cm, there is a suitable variant for most room proportions.
Water requirements are moderate: keep the soil slightly moist and avoid standing water around the roots, particularly during winter. When selecting a size, the relationship between plant height and ceiling height is the key consideration. Each plant is shipped in a sturdy purpose-made box with a protective sleeve, ensuring it arrives in good condition.
Can the Strelitzia Reginae be used both indoors and outdoors? Yes, the plant is suitable for both settings. Indoors it prefers a position with plenty of indirect light; outdoors it does well in a sunny spot such as a terrace or garden.
How much maintenance does this plant require in a commercial setting? Maintenance is minimal. Keeping the soil slightly moist is sufficient; standing water around the roots should be avoided, particularly in winter. No complex care routine is needed.
How do I choose the right size for my space? Base your choice on the ratio between plant height and ceiling height. The range runs from 100 to 180 cm, covering both lower office spaces and taller hotel lobbies or atriums.
Can I order multiple units for a project? Yes, ordering individual units and larger quantities for a project are both possible. The order is dispatched as a whole, which keeps logistics straightforward for larger installations.
How is the plant packaged and what is the lead time? Each plant is shipped in a sturdy box designed specifically for indoor plants, with a protective sleeve around the plant and soil. The lead time is five working days.
