Strelitzia is a genus of tropical plants, also known as "Bird of Paradise flowers" or "Bird of Paradise plants." They are famous for their striking and exotic appearance with large, lush leaves and distinctive flowers that resemble the head and beak of a bird of paradise, hence the name. Strelitzia usually requires a lot of light and heat to grow and flower properly. They are valued for their decorative value and are often used in landscape architecture and interior design. This plant adds a sense of adventure and luxury to any space, be it in your living room, office or garden.
What makes this plant so unique are its stunning flowers. They look like exotic birds dancing on their stems. Strelitzia needs very bright, indirect light to thrive. Place the plant by an east-, west- or south-facing window where it receives a few hours of indirect sunlight a day. They can tolerate some direct sunlight, but avoid the bright midday sun. Allow the top layer of soil to dry out before watering again. Strelitzia is not known to be toxic to humans, including children, but can cause problems if ingested. The plant may contain fibers and substances that can cause stomach irritation if parts of it are eaten.
