Description
The Strelitzia Nicolai, better 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 the plant produces, which resemble the birds of paradise. However, these flowers are rare in home conditions.
Strelitzia Nicolai originally comes from South Africa, where it grows in full sun and can reach up to ten meters tall. In the Netherlands, however, this houseplant will remain much smaller, although it can still reach an impressive height.
The care of this houseplant is quite simple, making it a good choice for both beginner and experienced plant lovers. It prefers a lot of light, but direct sunlight should be introduced gradually to avoid damaging the leaves.
The Torun plant basket is a trendy plant basket. Lined with a strong inner bag and has a sturdy natural appearance. You can place the plant in the basket with or without a grower’s pot. It is important to always place a thin layer of hydro pellets at the bottom so that the plant’s roots do not stand in water. The excess water will then be absorbed by the pellets.
