Category:

We carry both Giant White Bird of Paradise ‘Strelitzia nicolai’ & the Common Orange Bird of Paradise ‘Strelitzia reginae’. If ever a single plant could symbolize exotic, sub-tropical it would be this one.

White & Orange Birds of Paradise will grow in full sun but seem to be happiest in part sun or part shade.

Hardy to Zones 9-11. Both plants flowers will bloom more abundantly when they are pot-bound.  Easy to care for and make a great house plant or a beautiful addition to any container landscape.

Both plants resemble a bird in the shape of their flowers looking like a birds heads and the Giant white Birds leaves look like feathers.

The flowers consist of dark blueish sepals and petals in a blended colour of purple and blue and blossom on and off during warm weather.
