Strelitzia Nicolai / White Bird of Paradise

Updated: Jul 19, 2023

Use: White Bird of Paradise is used either as accent pieces or as loose privacy walls and buffers. They are ideal in tight fitting locations.

Trimming: Trim leaves as they become scraggly and damaged, or to thin out plants. Remove new growth from the bottom to keep plants within their allotted spaces. If one plant grows too tall for space, cut it out from the bottom and allow shorter plants to grow up and fill into the desired height.

Fertilization: Very hardy plant, but likes fertile soil. Best to fertilize in March, June, and October with a well-balanced, granular Palm fertilizer.
