Bird of Paradise (Strelitzia nicolai)
$39.99
Characteristics
The Strelitzia nicolai, also known as the White Bird of Paradise or Giant Bird of Paradise, is a truly magnificent plant that brings a touch of the tropics indoors or graces landscapes in warm climates. Unlike the vibrant orange and blue of the Bird of Paradise, the Strelitzia nicolai boasts a more elegant color scheme. The flower has a dark purplish-black bract that opens to reveal a white or faintly pink crown (sepals) and a contrasting blue "tongue" formed by the petals.
How to Care for White Bird of Paradise
- Light: Thrives in full size to partial shade. Indoors, place it near a south facing window for optimal light.
- Water Preferences: Water deeply when the top inch of soil dries out. Avoid overwatering, but ensure consistent moisture during the growing season.
- Special Care/Notes: While tolerates average household humidity, it appreciates occasional misting, especially in dry climates.

"Wow! What a wonderful first time to Bath!! The staff is beautiful!! Professional, knowledgeable and so willing to help and inform. The selection of indoor plants (this is what I came in for) is spectacular and the care they give their plants is exceptional. Hundreds of plants and in my time at Bath saw not one brown leaf. No dying plants and no unhealthy plants which tells me that they are meticulous in their care. I would like to give a shout out to “The Sheriff.” I believe her real name is Martha! Unbelievable human being. They went over and above to help me find the perfect oversized houseplant. They made it a beautiful experience and not just a buying experience. Sheriff!! You made me a happy man, customer and future customer of Bath!! ✌🏼❤️"
