The Bird of Paradise, or Strelitzia reginae, is a bold, architectural plant that brings a tropical statement to any space. With its broad, paddle-shaped leaves and dramatic upright growth, it exudes elegance and structure. When mature and given the right conditions, it rewards you with striking orange and blue blooms that resemble a bird in flight—hence its iconic name.
This plant thrives in bright, direct or very bright indirect light and enjoys a warm, humid environment. Keep the soil evenly moist during the growing season, allowing the top 25% to dry between waterings. In the cooler months, reduce watering slightly.
