Bird of Paradise FAQs
Why is my bird of paradise not flowering?
Usually the plant is too young or gets too little light. Move it to the brightest spot you have, feed it in the growing season, and be patient, as young plants can take years to flower.
Why are the leaves splitting?
Splitting along the veins is normal for this plant and is made worse by wind and dry air. It is not a sign of disease.
Can I grow it indoors?
Yes, near the brightest window. It does best with some direct sun, or on a bright balcony.
What is the difference between the orange and the white bird of paradise?
The orange one (Strelitzia reginae) stays smaller and has the orange and blue flowers. The white one (Strelitzia nicolai) grows much taller and looks like a banana plant.
How often should I water it?
When the top inch of soil is dry. Check with your finger rather than following a fixed schedule.
