Strelitzia nicolai

This structural evergreen is primarily grown for its handsome (banana-like) foliage, which becomes shredded as it ages. Given time and the right conditions however, it may occasionally produce a blue and white flowerhead too! In its native environment, Strelitzia nicolai can grow to a great height (the foliage alone nearing 4m or 12ft), but when confined to a pot and kept as an indoor plant, it will be a much more modest, but no less decorative specimen.

Leaves may display natural splitting and minor nicks, particularly after handling or transit. This is entirely normal for bird of paradise and does not affect the health or quality of the plant. This is an adaptation that helps

Please note that the plant comes in a nursery pot as standard, unless a decorative pot cover is included as an option.
