Description
The Strelitzia Nicolai, commonly known as the Bird of Paradise plant, is an impressive green houseplant with large, glossy leaves. These leaves can reach a spectacular size in a home environment, making the plant a popular choice for filling empty spaces in a room.
The nickname 'Bird of Paradise Plant' comes from the exotic and colorful flowers that the plant produces, which resemble the birds of paradise. However, these flowers are rare in domestic settings.
Strelitzia Nicolai originates from South Africa, where it grows in full sun and can grow up to ten metres high. In the Netherlands, however, this houseplant will remain a lot smaller, although it can still reach an impressive height.
Caring for this houseplant is quite easy, making it a good choice for both beginners and experienced plant lovers. It prefers a lot of light, but direct sunlight should be introduced gradually so as not to damage the leaves.
The Torun plant basket is a trendy plant basket. Lined with a strong inner bag and has a tough natural look. You can put the plant in the basket with or without a grower's pot. It is important to always put a thin layer of hydro grains on the bottom so that the plant does not stand with its feet in the water. The excess water will then be absorbed by the grains.
