Strelitzia Nicolai
Origin
The Strelitzia reginae or Bird of Paradise flower is originally from South Africa, but in the meantime the plant has spread to almost all tropical and subtropical regions.
Strelitzia belongs to the banana family (Musaceae) and are closely linked. Yet the differences between Musa and Strelitzia are at least as numerous as the similarities. For example, the leaf shape of both plants is roughly the same, but the banana leaves are rather thin and tear easily, while the leaves of the bird of paradise flowers are very thick, strong and unbreakable.

Every week the Bird of Paradise flower wants a good splash of water, just make sure that there is no layer of water in the soil. Also regularly spray the leaves so that the leaves remain beautifully green. Halve watering in winter!
Also in the winter give the plants a place where the temperature does not fall below 10 ° C and preferably in a light place. Furthermore, keep the plants fairly dry during this period.
The Paradijvogelbloem wants a light and warm place in the full sun in the summer. To prevent evaporation, preferably in a wind-free place.

These flowers are not only very beautiful for the garden or terrace, but you can also use them as a cut flower for a vase or for processing in a flower arrangement where they stay fresh for a very long time.
